Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
We'll keep singing without fail
Otherwise, we'd spoil it
Hosing down the garbage pail
And scrubbing up the toilet
Oh
[Verse 4]
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
[Bridge]
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
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
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
[Outro]
Ah
Wasn't this fun?
