The Laundry Lyrics by Roches, The

The Laundry Lyrics

    Time to do the laundry
    Search your room for any dirty clothes
    This week's load is really smelly
    You might want to put a clothespin on your nose

    I check underneath the bed and dresser
    For fallen change
    While mom rubs the detergent into
    The grubby stains
    Put the pile in the purple laundry bag that dad
    Gave mom for her birthday years ago
    Even though that bag is full of holes

    Mama lifts it up and just like santa claus
    Goes out the door
    I'm the helping elf i pick up socks and underwear
    That might have fallen on the floor
    Down the stairs to the sidewalk 'round the corner
    And we're there
    To our very own favorite laundromat
    Where they like us 'cause we keep coming back

    The laundry, mom and me
    Tweedledum and tweedle dee dee
    It's always much more fun
    Than we think it's gonna be

    I get to put the quarters in the washers
    And the dryers too
    Instead of waiting there we go do other chores
    We simply have to do

    And when it's done we never fold the clean clothes
    At the laundromat
    We bring the whole thing back home
    Where we fold in peace
    Together all alone

    The laundry, mom and me
    Tweedledum and tweedle dee dee
    It's always much more fun
    Than we think it's gonna be
