The Lyrics

Well way up on the ceiling the paint has yellowed,
And it's starting to blister
'Cause it's getting old.
You've got yourself a task that you're gonna dread,
'Cause you're gonna have a roller high above your head.

Gotta mix the paint thick,
Mix the paint thick.
Gotta mix the paint thick,
Mix the paint thick.

So you don't add any water to mix the paint thick.
Gotta stir it thoroughly with a thick paint stick.
You got the dropcloths spread, but you have got no zeal.
Make sure surfaces are clean, or new paint will peel.

Gotta mix the paint thick,
Mix the paint thick.
Gotta mix the paint thick,
Mix the paint thick.

Runs in your ear.
Runs in your ear.
Oh no!
Runs in your ear.
Runs in your ear.

The drips aren't slow ones.

It's falling down below at a fright'nin' speed.
And you spy some old whitewash that's startin' to bleed.
You didn't put on goggles, so there's paint in your eyes.
So you try to wash it out right before it dries.

Gotta mix the paint thick,
Mix the paint thick.
Gotta mix the paint thick,
Mix the paint thick.

&*$#@!
Didn't mix the paint thick--
Dripped onto the floor, oh dear! (3x)
