The Lyrics

Working in a tavern, tidying the restrooms
Not an easy occu-pation, roll my sleeves
Starting after closing, busy until sunrise
I am not rejoicing, cleaning up the heaves..

Cleaning up the heaves, cleaning up the heaves,
Job that does no joy bring, cleaning up the heaves
Cleaning up the heaves, voicing my peeves
Girl, as well as boy thing..can't believe the heaves..

Second hand Budweiser ain't an appetizer
Get to know the vomits..that pile looks like Steve's
Awful telltale signs in..every cookie toss
I am not rejoicing, cleaning up the heaves..

Scrubbing up the heaves, feel like butler, Jeeves
'Cept there is no class in cleaning up the heaves
Wiping up the heaves, what a drunkard leaves
Working in New Joisey..cleaning up the heaves

Keep my head turned backwards, hold my nose, it's awkward
Feel like some doomed pris'ner..no gov'nor reprieves..
With my mop and bucket, gathering "Upchuckit"
Mind tells boss to "Suck It!" Tension, this relieves

Cleaning up the heaves, cleaning up the heaves,
Working for low wages, janitor receives
Cleaning up the heaves, they're as thick as leaves
Glad the drinks weren't on the...house, they'd clog the eaves

Glad the drinks weren't on the...house, they'd clog the eaves

Booze will do that to ya, AFW, especially when drunk in quantity like the barflies in your parody did. I have puked a lot after drinking alcohol, especially after splitting a half-case of Keystone Light with my sister while playing hooky from college. 5s to you, and an Andria Award for "Best Vomit Parody Seen So Far" goes to... Airfarcewon!

Working in Joysey, Sir L'Air ? Sounds like Sinatra's ' day job ', before he got famous!
