ASHLEY: Come on, everybody, we’re over-thinking this. What do we do when we have a messy room?

EVERYBODY’S eyes light up.

EVERYONE: Oh yeah!

EVERYONE (cont'd):

SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG.
GET IT OUTA YOUR SIGHT.
IT'LL TURN OUT ALL RIGHT
GIVE THE FABRIC A TUG.
THINGS'LL CHANGE OVERNIGHT.
GO AND TURN OUT THE LIGHT.

SIMPLY CLOSING YOUR EYES
DOES THE TRICK
AND YOU GO WITH THE FLOW.
SO YOU DEVISE
SOMETHING QUICK
CUZ YOU HATE BEING SLOW
LIKE A SLUG
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG

SWEEP IT UP,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG
SWEEP IT UP, SWEEP IT UP,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG
SWEEP IT UP, SWEEP IT UP,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG
SWEEP IT UP, SWEEP IT UP,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG
SWEEP IT UP, SWEEP IT UP,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG!

IF YOUR TROUBLES ARE BIG
IF YOUR TROUBLES ARE SMALL
DOESN'T MATTER AT ALL
GRAB A SHOVEL AND DIG!
ROLL IT INTO A BALL!
HIDE THE STUFF IN A WALL!

WHEN YOU FIND THAT YOU MUST
ACQUIESCE
BUT YOU DON'T WANNA WORK,
YOU READJUST
TO THE MESS.
AND INSTEAD WITH A SMIRK
AND A SHRUG:
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG

SWEEP IT UP,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG
SWEEP IT UP, SWEET IT UP,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG
SWEEP IT UP, SWEET IT UP,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG
SWEEP IT UP, SWEET IT UP,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG
SWEEP IT UP, SWEET IT UP,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG!

WHEN YOU FIND THAT YOU MUST
ACQUIESCE
BUT YOU DON'T WANNA WORK,
YOU READJUST
TO THE MESS.
AND INSTEAD WITH A SMIRK
AND A SHRUG:
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG,
SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG!
