Wash Away |
| Mother’s in the kitchen steaming up the window panes |
| Smell of boiling cabbage comes up from an open drain |
| But no amount of scrubbing could ever shift a gravy stain |
| Washaway washaway washerette |
| Washaway washaway every dirty stain you get |
| Streets lay deserted |
| No one feels exerted |
| Sat on their couches |
| With loose change in their pouches |
| They couldn’t spend it if they tried |
| In comes Mr Softee |
| Dressed up like and ice cream cone |
| Ringing for his supper |
| Heading for a stately home |
| But a thousand Yorkshire puddings |
| Couldn’t make his business boom |
| See how they wander |
| To kill time in droves they squander |
| Money in centres |
| That feed on the mind, oh bother |
| It just gets you down |
| Washaway washaway washerette |
| Business as usual at the uptown launderette |
| Washaway washaway the dirt |
| Wash it |
| Washaway the dirt |
