[00:00:00] Everybody Ought to Have a Maid (from 'A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum') - Stephen Sondheim

[00:00:06] Everybody ought to have a maid

[00:00:09] Everybody ought to have a working girl

[00:00:12] Everybody ought to have a lurking girl

[00:00:15] To putter around the house

[00:00:18] Everybody ought to have a maid

[00:00:21] Everybody ought to have a menial

[00:00:24] Consistantly congenial

[00:00:27] And quieter than a mouse

[00:00:31] Oh oh wouldn't she be delicious

[00:00:34] Tidying up the dishes Neat as a pin

[00:00:37] Oh oh wouldn't she be delightful

[00:00:40] Sweeping out Sleeping in

[00:00:44] Everybody ought to have a maid

[00:00:46] Someone who you hire

[00:00:48] When you're short of help

[00:00:49] To offer you the sort of help

[00:00:52] You never get from a spouse

[00:00:56] Fluttering up the stairway

[00:00:57] Shuttering up the windows

[00:00:59] Cluttering up the bedroom

[00:01:00] Buttering up the master

[00:01:02] Puttering all around the house

[00:01:07] Oh oh Think of her at the dustbin

[00:01:10] 'Specially when she's

[00:01:11] Just been Traipsing about

[00:01:13] Oh oh wouldn't she be delightful

[00:01:16] Living in Giving out

[00:01:20] Everybody ought to have a maid

[00:01:23] Daintily collecting bits of paper n' strings

[00:01:26] Appealing in her apron strings

[00:01:29] Beguiling in her blouse

[00:01:32] Pattering through the attic

[00:01:34] Chattering in the cellar

[00:01:35] Clattering in the kitchen

[00:01:37] Flattering in the bedroom

[00:01:39] Puttering all around the house

[00:01:45] The house

[00:01:48] The house

[00:01:51] The house

[00:01:59] A maid A maid A maid A maid

[00:02:02] Everybody ought to have a maid

[00:02:05] Someone who's efficient and reliable

[00:02:08] Obedient and pliable

[00:02:11] And quieter than a mouse

[00:02:16] Oh oh wouldn't she be so nimble

[00:02:18] Fiddling with her thimble

[00:02:20] Mending her gown

[00:02:22] Oh oh wouldn't she be delightful

[00:02:25] Cleaning up Leaning down

[00:02:28] Everybody ought to have a maid

[00:02:31] Someone who'll be busy as a bumblebee

[00:02:34] And even if you grumble be

[00:02:37] As graceful as a grouse

[00:02:40] Wriggling in the anteroom

[00:02:42] Jiggling in the living room

[00:02:44] Giggling in the dining room

[00:02:45] Wiggling in the other rooms

[00:02:47] Puttering all around the house

[00:02:53] The house

[00:02:56] The house

[00:02:59] The house
