Lyrics[]
Jasper: Hey!
Look out!
It's a beautiful day
Goin' outside to play
My dad stopped me, said, "I've got somethin' for you" (Ho!)
He said, "A boy of your size
You need to learn how to organize"
He said, "Before you can play, you've got some chores to do" (Hey!)
All: Clean your room off the floor
Start right now, get it done by 4:00
Get it done, son, you can go play when you're through (Jasper: Hey!)
Walk the dog, feed the cat
Sweep the floor, but not under the mat
Before you play, you've got some chores to do (Jasper: Hey!) (Pasqually giggles)
Jasper: I said, "Come on, Dad, this is such a drag
I just wanna go play capture the flag
Donnie and Frank are outside waiting for me" (Yeah!)
He said, "Donnie and Frank are ready to play,
'Cause they've already done their chores today
So get movin', son, 'cause this dust is botherin' me"
All: Clean your room off the floor
Start right now, get it done by 4:00
Get it done, son, you can go play when you're through (Pasqually: Oh-ho!) (Jasper: Ho!)
Walk the dog, feed the cat
Sweep the floor, but not under the mat
Before you play, you've got some chores to do (Jasper: Hey!)
Helen: Ooh, yeah-ah (Jasper: Oh!
All right
Ooh-ah, you've got some chores to do
Jasper: I've got some chores to do, baby!
Helen: All right
Jasper: I'm playin' this guitar, that's one chore I'm gonna do right now! UH!
I did my chores, I worked real hard
I even trimmed the hedges and mowed the yard
I went to go tell my dad that I was through
I finished my chores, and now I'm done
I'm goin' outside to have some fun
My dad just smiled, and then he said, "Thank you!" (HEY!)
All: Clean your room off the floor
Start right now, get it done by 4:00
Get it done, son, you can go play when you're through (Helen: Ooh-ooh)
Walk the dog, feed the cat
Sweep the floor, but not under the mat
Before you play, you've got some chores to do (Helen: Sing it to me, yeah) (Jasper: Oh, yeah!)
Before you play, you've got some chores to do (Chuck E.: One more time!)
Jasper: And I'm through, baby! (Helen: Oooh, yeah)
