Now you wash the dishes
You tidy up the room
You clean those cobwebs. What?
And he'll use the broom. Me?
Whistle while you work
And cheerfully together
We can tidy up the place
So hum a merry tune
Hmm-hmm-hmm
It won’t take long when there's a song
To help you set the pace
And as you sweep the floor
What used to be a bore
Will feel just like a game
And not the same old chore it was before
Whistle while you work
You'll get it!
When we’re a team, the house will gleam
So whistle while you work
Whistle while you work
It's easy to get through it
When we do it hand in hand
So catch that merry tune
I'll take it!
When work is fun, the work gets done
In half the time you planned. Wait!
I think that brush is mine
You shoulda hung a sign
If you don't hush, I'll take this brush
And shove it where the Sun don't shine
Whistle while you work
Your bickering won't fix a thing
So whistle while you work
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ahIt's easy to get through it
When we do it hand in hand
Whistle while you work
We’ve scrubbed the house together
Now it’s clean as clean can be
So hum a merry tune
This grimy group became a troupe
That feels like family
Oh, what used to be a mess
(to be a mess)
That lived at this address
(that lived at this address)
Is now clean as a whistle
Just from whistlin' sounds of happiness
Whistle while you work
When work is fun, the work gets done
It’s mighty fine when we combine
It won't take long when there's a song
So whistle while you work
