THE FLIES IN MY KITCHEN ARE DRIVING ME NUTS,
MY SWATTER IS READY TO SHOW THEY HAVE GUTS,
SUCH INSOLENT CREATURES, SO TERRIBLY RUDE,
TO NOT WIPE THEIR FEET BEFORE LANDING ON FOOD!!
CHORUS
OH THOSE FLIES, FLIES, PESKY FLIES,
EACH OF THEM I SO DEEPLY DESPISE,
THEY DRIVE ONE LOONY, THAT IS FOR SURE!!
BUT SOMEHOW WE LEARN TO ENDURE!!
VERSE 2
THEY GET IN YOUR FACE THOUGH YOU SHOO THEM AWAY,
THEY STICK AROUND JUST TO TORMENT YOUR DAY!!
THEY NEED TO BE DOWN SIZED, THEIR NUMBERS TOO MANY,
IF I HAD MY WAY THERE WOULD BE ANY!!
OF THOSE!!
CHORUS
FLIES, FLIES, PESKY FLIES,
EACH OF THEM I SO DEEPLY DESPISE,
THEY DRIVE ONE LOONY, THAT IS FOR SURE,
BUT SOMEHOW WE LEARN TO ENDURE!!
VERSE 3
THOSE FLIES IN MY KITCHEN ARE THOUGHTLESS AND LAZY,
GOT NOTHIN’ TO DO EXCEPT DRIVE ME CRAZY!!
OOPS, ONE FELL IN MY SOUP, IT’S DISCUSTING A SIN,
‘CAUSE WE ALL KNOW JUST WHERE THEY’VE BEEN!!
CHORUS
OH THOSE FLIES, FLIES, PESKY FLIES,
EACH OF THEM I SO DEEPLY DESPISE,
THEY DRIVE ONE LOONY, THAT IS FOR SURE,
BUT SOMEHOW WE LEARN TO ENDURE!!
