I used to toil, I used to work
I took the jobs even grownups would shirk
I tamed a tiger and I tamed a shrew
I put the pandas in the Pittsburgh Zoo
I peeled peanuts, pickles and peas
I pulled crickets and cats out of trees
I drove limos and buses and planes
I painted lines on roads with no lanes
INSTRUMENTcL
I cleaned toilets, windows and rugs
I umped ball games for birdies and bugs
I trained salmons, seals and snakes
I put the icing and candles on cakes
But that's all over, 'cause now I'm retired
Nine hundred jobs and I've never been fired
If I had the time, I would kick back and laugh
But I'm too busy livin' at eight and a half
