The Lyrics
Heaven knows it's hard for the Mobster demographic to find good sanitary help these days...but their prayers may have finally been answered...by Maybelle's Mobster Maids...
Hey-a Sal!
You made a bloody mess by the canal
But don’t go lookin’ for a paper towel
To clean it now!
It's alright
We got the answer for your little plight
No need for scrubbin’, sweatin’ through the night
We’ll clean it now!
All it takes…is a call
For a price we’ll clean it all
We won’t rat, we won’t snitch
We just keep on cleanin’
Keep on cleanin’
Keep on cleanin’ clean!
Whack a guy?
You wanna keep it from the F.B.I.
Don’t get a maid with an accusing eye
We’ll clean it now!
It's okay
We’ll wipe a hit up any time of day
And haul the bloody evidence away
We’ll clean it now!
Body bag…in your trunk?
All suspicion we’ll debunk
In a rush? We’ll be quick
We just keep on cleanin’
Keep on cleanin’
Keep on cleanin’ clean!
(Complimentary Swing Band music…to muffle any additional gunshots)
If you go…on a spree
Know your fifth clean-up is free
Got no dough? We finance!
And just keep on cleanin’
Keep on cleanin’
Keep on cleanin’, clean!
You made a bloody mess by the canal
But don’t go lookin’ for a paper towel
To clean it now!
It's alright
We got the answer for your little plight
No need for scrubbin’, sweatin’ through the night
We’ll clean it now!
All it takes…is a call
For a price we’ll clean it all
We won’t rat, we won’t snitch
We just keep on cleanin’
Keep on cleanin’
Keep on cleanin’ clean!
Whack a guy?
You wanna keep it from the F.B.I.
Don’t get a maid with an accusing eye
We’ll clean it now!
It's okay
We’ll wipe a hit up any time of day
And haul the bloody evidence away
We’ll clean it now!
Body bag…in your trunk?
All suspicion we’ll debunk
In a rush? We’ll be quick
We just keep on cleanin’
Keep on cleanin’
Keep on cleanin’ clean!
(Complimentary Swing Band music…to muffle any additional gunshots)
If you go…on a spree
Know your fifth clean-up is free
Got no dough? We finance!
And just keep on cleanin’
Keep on cleanin’
Keep on cleanin’, clean!

DKTOS, but no matter - excellent idea and execution (oops, maybe I shouldn't have said execution...).
I DKTOS, and I can't even find the OS anywhere..... But I know I gotta give the proper respect to the Godmother.
great concept and execution, pun intended
I too am having a tough time finding this one--but well written Arwen!. . ."For a price we’ll clean it all We won’t rat, we won’t snitch" is the top line combination of the song.
Gangsters might know how to commit the perfect crime, so they wouldn't need any help. You should talk to OJ Simpson instead.
Found a video on YouTube - interesting OS and topic. Badabingbadaboom!
Finally found the O.S... Now I can really enjoy this! Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_R9xrCIwYs
Rex...I'm glad you enjoyed it. I had a feeling not many people would know the OS...not many Michael Buble freaks on AmiRight, apparently...=) No matter...thanks anyway!
Matthias...I love that I can just get 5s from you without you even knowing the song...or finding it. I love that. It makes me feel good about myself. And also...a little smug...; ) Thanks!
Alvin...hee hee...thanks!
BAD...=) Thanks very much...
2Eagle...eeek...even we wouldn't touch that one...; )
Red Ant...ah...is it the video of the group dancing? I tried to find a better one...but, alas...that's all I could find.
Matthias...Ah...a link. I'll have to see if it's the same one I found...thanks for going to the work and coming back...=)

(Decathlon 2.0) Brilliant little ad for the Mafia! Remember, when haggling over price, make them an offer they can't refuse...before they do it to you!
(dec2) "Know your fifth clean-up is free" was brilliant Arwen - and I'd be surprised if maids with accusing eyes get any work at all - 555
(Decathlon) Highly original idea, skillfully executed (as would be expected by our Arwen)...as Ann Hammond sez, "I sang."!
I've often wondered how someone offering those sorts of services would advertise... now I know.
Arwen, loveliest of lovelies, this is astoundingly clever. I love it!
(DEC 2.1) What a wonderfully original idea! And constructed in perfect Arwenesque style....Bravo, Carmine...I mean, Arwen! 555+
(Decathlon2) "Got no dough? We finance!" Fanfriggintastic line Arwen!!! I loved this parody, namely because it fit the mood of the original so well and incorporated the idea behind it to some degree. Number one is no longer going to be such an easy decision.
( Decathlon: Beyond Blunderdome) This was awesome! 5s
This song is killer! Well done =)
DEC 2.1- This was really funny and enjoyable, Arwen. I'd bet you make a killing at that... or should I say you'd really clean up.. or... ah you get the idea.
Maids who not only clean up your dirty work, but also finance? Sign me up! Great work here!
Lmao! the code is "RUN" trying to tell me something.
great work Arwen. sopranos the musical beckons lol
Loved it even more the 2nd time around! Great original song choice, I love swing music!
How'd I miss this. Well done, very creative idea, excellent pacing, and I really enjoyed 'whack a guy/FBI/'cusing eye' and 'fifth cleaning's free'. A belated well done here.
(Ages) Funny as heck, very clever, and mock-subtle! 5-5-5!
(Ages2) See above!
(Ages) Interesting idea Arwen, generally great rhyming (except the very first sentence didn't have to rhyme with the second. . .but the second did have to with the third. . .still would work if recorded so no biggey) Interesting song choice, unique especially for a 2000's song--but it didn't give you a whole heck of a lot to work with, can't blame you for that, but I wish it was longer. . .
I don't know what this says about me, but I do know this OS. I thought this was fun and, once again, the Arwen "point of view" came shining through. I agree with Stu as the "Know your fifth clean-up is free" line stood out for me.
Hey. Congratulations on winning, and I'm sorry I didn't hold my end of the bargain up. I feel like such a jerk. I didn't come here to say that though. I'm glad you got first, and I think it's cool how far you've come from writing those old LOTR parodies. You're seasoned and talented at your craft, miss. I hope you've been doing well.
Holy cow...I was going to go back and thank everyone individually that I hadn't yet thanked...but then I looked at the list...and I realized that I'm really lazy. =( Thanks to you all, though...dating back...to 2007...(GOSH I'm lame!)...you guys all rock.
Just a clarification, though...for 2nz...I didn't win first with this...(unless something changed since I was on the thread?) I think I got third. I'm grateful to have placed...but you know...as much as I brag myself up, I won't take credit that someone else deserves. Usually. Thanks though! And I promise not to think you're a jerk as long as you vote for me on every entry from here on out. For all five of your places. ; ) XOXO
