Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ah, good morning world and all who inhabit it
Jump out of bed, mix up a breakfast for my favorite pet snail (Meow)
Full steam ahead, the SS I Am Ready, is about to set sail
This kind of day couldn't get much better but it keeps on trying
I'm on my way, somewhere there's a Krabby Patty that needs frying
[Verse 2]
And who's the lucky sponge in the mirror who is living his dream?
Who's always extra careful with his dental hygiene?
Gary, it's me, happy just to be here
In the world renowned Bikini Bottom
How I love this town, Bikini Bottom
When the sun shines down on a beautiful Bikini Bottom day
[Verse 3]
Good morning, Patrick
Ah, is it morning already?
It sure is and I'm singing an opening number
Ohh, hoo, I want a verse
[Verse 4]
I missed a snack, this busy schedule makes it hard to be me
To stay on track, now I'll have to eat it while I'm watching TV
There might not be time for a nap, but I'll do what I can
They're showing all the episodes of Mermaid Man
Oh, every single one, I'm standing all day
Underneath my favorite rock, Bikini Bottom
Now, what rhymes with rock? Bikini Bottom
Nothing rhymes with rock, it's a typical Bikini Bottom day
[Verse 5]
Would you two please keep it down?
Good morning, Squidward
Another day, another migraine
[Verse 6]
When I want some quiet, there's nowhere to go
A sensitive artiste can't get a moment's peace
With these two idiots in stereo
They never go away, typical Bikini Bottom day
[Verse 7]
We now follow SpongeBob past the Treedome
Home to Sandy Cheeks, the squirrel
Hard at work on her latest invention
[Verse 8]
Boy, howdy, that was close, it's just a little smoke, a minor setback
A few more hours at most and I'll be done with this
Here brand new jetpack
And then this Texas squirrel, this country girl
Will spread her wings and fly
Her bushy tail, a comet's trail, clear across the sky
Above a town and looking down on a typical Bikini Bottom day, yeah
[Verse 9]
Bye, Sandy, I'm off to work at the Krusty Krab
[Verse 10]
Ah yes, Bikini Bottom's most popular dining establishment
Home to the Krabby Patty
Owned and operated by Mr. Eugene Krabs
And across town, the least popular restaurant
The Chum Bucket, run by Sheldon J. Plankton
Two arch-nemeses locked in a fast food Cold War
[Verse 11]
Wind's from the west, everywhere you look
The skies are clear and sunny
Good weather's best when you're in
The mood to make a ton of money
[Verse 12]
Laugh while you can until the day
You laugh your no more forever (Forever)
I've got a plan and I went to college so you know it's clever
[Verse 13]
They say that money doesn't matter if you love your work
Who would say that? Probably some penniless jerk
[Verse 14]
Soon the day will come when they'll all love Chum
It's just a matter of time, Bikini Bottom
Till I get them in line, Bikini Bottom
And this town is all mine, just a typical Bikini Bottom day
[Verse 15]
Spongebob, reporting for duty
At the greatest restaurant in the entire ocean
Where's Mr. Krabs?
It's Take Your Kid To Work Day
[Verse 16]
Just think, Pearl, me darling daughter
One day, this will all be yours
Soon as you graduate high school, I'll start you as manager
But I have my own dreams, daddy
[Verse 17]
Um, Mr. Krabs
If she doesn't want to be manager
I know someone who'd be great for the job
You? My boy, you're just a wee, simple sponge
A fry cook's all you'll ever be
[Verse 18]
Why can't he see? I wore my good shoes and I've got my tie on
Maybe it's me, am I just a simple sponge you can't rely on?
Come on, Mr. Krabs, I could do it if you give me one chance
Then everyone would say, good morning, Mr. SquarePants
I would never rest, until I was the best
[Verse 19]
SpongeBob, get in the kitchen
It's opening time
[Verse 20]
In the world renowned Bikini Bottom
Our own hometown, Bikini Bottom
And the sun shines down, the sun shines down
And the sun shines down, the sun shines down
It's a typical, incredible, irregular, exceptional
And ordinary, extraordinary Bikini Bottom
Day
Bikini Bottom day, Bikini Bottom day
Bikini Bottom, Bikini Bottom
Bikini Bottom, Bikini Bottom day
