Song Lyrics

Come, my little friends
As we all sing a happy little working song
Merry little voices clear and strong
Come and roll your sleeves up so that we can pitch in
Cleaning crud up in the kitchen
As we sing along

Trill a cheery tune in the tub
As we scrub a stubborn mildew stain
Pluck a hairball from the shower drain
To the gay refrain of a happy working song

We'll keep singing without fail
Otherwise we'd spoil it
Hosing down the garbage pail
And scrubbing up the toilet, ooh

How we all enjoy letting loose
With a little la-da-da-dum-dum
While we're emptying the vacuum up
It's such fun to hum a happy working song
Ooh, a happy working song

Oh, how strange a place to be
'Till Edward comes for me, my heart is sighing
Still, as long as I am here
I guess a new experience could be worth trying
Hey, keep trying

You can do a lot when you got
Such a happy working tune to hum
While you're sponging up the soapy scum
We adore each filthy chore that we determine
So friends, even though you're vermin
We're a happy working song

Singing as we fetch the detergent box
For the smelly shirts and the stinky socks
Sing along, if you cannot sing then hum along
As we're finishing our happy working song

Ah, wasn't this fun?
