Everybody Ought to Have a Maid 歌詞

Everybody Ought to Have a Maid (from 'A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum') - Stephen Collins

 

Everybody ought to have a maid

Everybody ought to have a maid

Everybody ought to have a working girl

 

Everybody ought to have a working girl

 

To putter around the house

 

Everybody ought to have a maid

Everybody ought to have a maid

Everybody ought to have a menial

 

Consistantly congenial

 

And quieter than a mouse

 

Oh oh wouldn't she be delicious

Tidying up the dishes

Neat as a pin

Oh oh wouldn't she be delightful

Sweeping out

Sleeping in

 

Everybody ought to have a maid

Everybody ought to have a maid

Someone who you hire when you're short of help

To offer you the sort of help

You never get from a spouse:

 

Fluttering up the stairway

Shuttering up the windows

Cluttering up the bedroom

Buttering up the master

Puttering all around the house

 

Oh oh Think of her at the dustbin

'Specially when she's just been Traipsing about

Oh oh wouldn't she be delightful

Living in Giving out

 

Everybody ought to have a maid

Everybody ought to have a maid

Daintily collecting bits of paper strings

 

Appealing in her apron strings

 

Being only in her Blouse

 

Pattering through the attic

Chattering in the cellar

Clattering in the kitchen

 

Flattering in the bedroom

Puttering all around the house

 

The house

 

The house

 

The house

 

A maid

A maid

A maid

A maid

Everybody ought to have a maid

 

Someone who's efficient and reliable

Obedient and pliable

 

And quieter than a mouse

 

Oh oh wouldn't she be so nimble

Fiddling with her thimble

Mending her gown

Oh oh wouldn't she be delightful

Cleaning up

Leaning down

Everybody ought to have a maid

 

Someone who'll be busy as a bumblebee

And even if you grumble be

 

As graceful as a grouse

 

Wriggling in the anteroom

Jiggling in the living room

Giggling in the dining room

Wiggling in the other rooms

Puttering all around the house

 

The house

 

The house

 

 

The house
