Cleaning Up the House


A parody of Burning Down the House by the Talking Heads

Watch out! I see your head is reeling
Sorry baby. My place is unappealing
I am just a slovenly guy
Made a mess of my house

Hold nose. The kitchen smells so putrid
Hold tight. Something in the fridge just moved
Time to combat this decay
Cleaning up the house!

Take out garbage hefty bags. wipe the sink with terry rags.
Dishes in dishwasher
Here’s a vacuum here a mop. Let me show you what I’ve got
Base camp at laundry pile

It’s gross. Hey you might need a raincoat.
Bathroom. Gonna require hazmat
Three thousand roach roommates I have found
Cleaning up the house


I would once upon a time, clean each room until it shined
But then I got idle.
Now all my slothful neglecting has made the whole house disgusting
Some windex is vital

Cleaning up the house

My house is out of the ordinary
This mess, it is extraordinary
You step outside be sure to wipe your feet
Cleaning up the house.

After hours maybe days place is looking put away
So clean that it’s squeaky
After all that working I vow this time I will keep it clean now
For at least another week
