|
| We’re busy doin' nothin'
|
| Workin' the whole day through
|
| Tryin' to find lots of things not to do
|
| We’re busy goin' nowhere
|
| Isn’t it just a crime
|
| We’d like to be unhappy, but
|
| We never do have the time
|
| I have to watch the river
|
| To see that it doesn’t stop
|
| And stick around the rosebuds
|
| So they’ll know when to pop
|
| And keep the crickets cheerful
|
| They’re really a solemn bunch
|
| Hustle, bustle
|
| And only an hour for lunch
|
| La-la-la-la-la-la

|
| Isn’t it just a crime
|
| We’d like to be unhappy, but
|
| We never do have the time
|
| I have to wake the Sun up
|
| He’s liable to sleep all day
|
| And then inspect the rainbows
|
| So they’ll be bright and gay
|
| I must rehearse the songbirds
|
| To see that they sing in key
|
| Hustle, bustle
|
| And never a moment free
|
| We’re busy doin' nothin'
|
| Workin' the whole day through
|
| Tryin' to find lots of things not to do
|
| We’re busy going nowhere
|
| Isn’t it just a crime
|
| We’d like to be unhappy, but
|
| We never do have the time
|
| I have to meet a turtle
|
| I’m teachin' him how to swim
|
| Then I have to shine the dewdrops
|
| You know they’re looking rather dim
|
| I told my friend, the robin
|
| I’d buy him a brand new vest
|
| Hustle, bustle
|
| We never do have
|
| We never do have
|
| We never do, never do
|
| Never do, never do, never do have the time
|
| Never do have the time |
