Nowthere s a certain thing
That I learned from Jim
That he d always make sure I d understand
And that is that there s a certain way
That a man must swim
If he expects to live off
Of the fat of the land.
Open the doorHomer
I ve heard it said before.
Open the doorHomer
I ve heard it said before
But I ain t gonna hear it said no more.
Nowthere s a certain thing
That I learned from my friendMouse
A fella who always blushes
And that is that ev ryone
Must always flush out his house
If he don t expect to be
Goin round housing flushes.
Open the doorHomer
I ve heard it said before.
Open the doorHomer
I ve heard it said before
But I ain t gonna hear it said no more.
"Take care of all your memories"
Said my friendMick
"For you cannot relive them
And remember when you re out there
Tryin to heal the sick
That you must always
First forgive them."
Open the doorHomer
I ve heard it said before.
Open the doorHomer
I ve heard it said before
But I ain t gonna hear it said no more.
