​
Lyrics:
You can do a lot when you've got such a happy working tune to hum
While you're sponging up the soapy scum
We adore each filthy chore that we determine
So friends, even though you're vermin we're a happy working throng
Singing as we fetch the detergent box
For the smelly shirts and the stinky socks
Sing along! If you cannot sing then hum along!
As we're finishing our happy working song!

Lyrics:
You're not a voice
You're just a ringing in my ear
And if I heard you, which I don't
I'm spoken for I fear
Everyone I've ever loved is here within these walls
I'm sorry secret siren but I'm blocking out your calls
I've had my adventure, I don't need something new
I'm afraid of what I'm risking if I follow you
Into the unknown
Into the unknown
Into the unknown

​
Lyrics:
When dark woods hide secrets
And mountains are fierce and bold
Deep waters hold reflections
Of times lost long ago
I will hear their every story
Take home of my own dream
Be as strong as the seas are stormy
And proud as an eagle's scream
I will ride, I will fly
Chase the wind and touch the sky
I will fly
Chase the wind and touch the sky

​
Lyrics:
Come on you poor unfortunate soul
Go ahead, make your choice!
I'm a very busy woman and I haven't got all day
It won't cost much, just your voice
You poor unfortunate soul
It's sad but true
If you want to cross the bridge my sweet
You've got to pay the toll
Take a gulp and take a breath
And go ahead and sign the scroll
Flotsam, Jetsam now I got her boys
The boss is on a roll
This poor unfortunate soul

​
Lyrics:
Out there, strolling by the Seine
Taste a morning out there
Like ordinary men
Who freely walk about there
Just one day and then
I swear I'll be content
With my share
Won't resent
Won't despair
Old and bent
I won't care
I'll have spent one day out there!

Lyrics:
Well Ali Baba had them 40 thieves
Scheherazade had a thousand tales
But master you're in luck 'cause up your sleeve
You got a brand of magic never fails
You got some power in your corner now
Some heavy ammunition in your camp
You got some punch, pizzazz, yahoo and how?
See all you gotta do is rub that lamp, and I'll say
Mister Aladdin sir what will your pleasure be?
Let me take your order jot it down
You ain't never had a friend like me
Life if your restaurant and I'm your maitre de
Come on whisper what it is you want
You ain't never had a friend like me
