Ernie Cleans Up The Apartment Lyrics

Part One:

(Ernie, singing loudly and wordlessly,
is throwing stuff around the living room.)

Bert: Hey, Ernie, cut that out!
Cut that out! (Ernie stops.
) Look at this mess! Boy, you are the sloppiest person
I know! Now, if you don't get this place cleaned up,
I'm gonna move in with Oscar. His garbage can's neater than this. Wow!

Ernie: Oh, don't worry, Bert,
I'm gonna get this place so clean you wouldn't recognize
it. I'm telling you, Bert,
when I'm finished in here, you could eat off the floor!

Bert (mirthlessly): Ha, ha, ha. I'll believe that when I see it.

Ernie: Okay, stand back; just give me some room here ...

Part Two:

(The same scene. Ernie is humming and brushing some dirt into a dustpan.)

Bert (entering): Hey, Ernie,
the place looks terrific!
(I think Bert might have said some line here I don't
recall.) Hey, are you finished?

Ernie: Well, just about, Bert. I gotta go clean out my toybox.

Bert: Well, go to it! It's beautiful!

Ernie: Okay, I gotta go clean out my toybox.
(Takes things out of it, one at a time,
then throws each one over his shoulder after naming
it.) Let see, I got my Rubber Duckie.
Don't want to forget that .
.. I got my paper-clip collection .
.. my X, to mark the Spot .
.. my dog, Spot ... that's his name,
Spot ... Let's see, I got my worm collection .
.. old tape ... my football helmet .
.. my tinfoil ball ... a peanut butter sandwich .
.. Let's see ... down here ...

(Scene changes to show Bert standing nearby and sighing
as the stuff lands around him.)
