While singing in the tubLet the Whole wide nation worry over cash
I get compensation in hearing water splash!
Never any troubles cross my bathroom path
Bathing in those bubbles, I'm the knight of the bathSinging in the bathtub
sitting all alone
Tearing out a tonsil
Just like a baritoneNever take a shower
It's an awful pain
Singing in the shower
Is like singing in the rain.Oh, there is dirt to be abolished
But do not forget one thing
While your body's washed and polished
Sing brother sing!You can yodel opera
Even while you scrub
Everyone is happy
