This song came about due to my own
frustrations at the time we were
remodeling our kitchen. I
was contending with the clutter that
resulted from the reconstruction and mess
that goes with such a project!! However,
clutter can still happen just in our daily
lives anyway!!
CLUTTER, CLUTTER, CLUTTER EVERYWHERE,
STUFF STACKED HERE AND STUFF PILED THERE!!
CLUTTER ON THE FLOOR AND AGAINST THE WALL,
MY COUNTER TOPS ARE GROWING TEN FEET TALL!!
MELODY CHANGE
CLUTTER, CLUTTER, CLUTTER EVERYWHERE,
CLUTTER, CLUTTER, CLUTTER CAUSING ME DESPAIR,
LITTLE HUMMELS (those knickknacks and figurines)
SITTING ALONG MY WINDOW PANE,
ARE TOTALLY DRIVING ME INSANE!!
VERSE 2
DISHES PILED HIGH WITHIN MY SINK,
MY NERVES ARE FRAYED AND ON THE BRINK,
TO BE QUITE BLUNT I MUST CONFESS,
I’M LIVING IN A TOTAL MESS!!
MELODY CHANGE
CLUTTER, CLUTTER, CLUTTER EVERYWHERE,
CLUTTER, CLUTTER, CLUTTER CAUSING ME DESPAIR,
NOT ONE ROOM IN MY ENTIRE HOUSE,
IS EVEN FIT FOR A MANGY MOUSE!!
VERSE 3
RIGHT NOW A NUMBER I MUST FIND,
TO GIVE ME BACK MY PEACE OF MIND,
I FOUND IT NOW PLEASE HAND ME THE PHONE,
I NEED TO BE RESCUED FROM MY HOME!!
((I’m calling CLUTTER BUSTERS!!)
MELODY CHANGE
AND MY PLEA TO THEM IS SIMPLY THIS,
NONE OF THIS JUNK WILL I EVER MISS,
SO BRING A TRUCK AND HAUL IT ALL AWAY,
BEFORE I LOSE MY MIND TODAY!!
VERSE 4
CLUTTER, CLUTTER, CLUTTER
NO MORE TO BE SEEN,
‘CAUSE NOW MY HOUSE IS NICE AND CLEAN,
WHAT?!! THE GRAND KIDS YOU SAY
ARE COMING THIS WEEKEND?!!
NOW THE CYCLE WILL START ALL OVER AGAIN!!
MELODY CHANGE
CLUTTER, CLUTTER, CLUTTER EVERYWHERE,
CLUTTER, CLUTTER, CLUTTER BACK IN DESPAIR,
MY CLEAN HOUSE WAS JUST UNDONE,
OH WELL, (sigh) WE HAD A LOT OF FUN!!!!
