(Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller)
|
Take out the papers and the trash
|
Or you don't get no spendin' cash
|
If you don't scrub that kitchen floor
|
You ain't gonna rock and roll no more
|
Yakety yak (don't talk back)
|
|
Just finish cleanin' up your room
|
Let's see that dust fly with that broom
|
Get all that garbage out of sight
|
Or you don't go out Friday night
|
Yakety yak (don't talk back)
|
|
You just put on your coat and hat
|
And walk yourself to the laundromat
|
And when you finish doin' that
|
Bring in the dog and put out the cat
|
Yakety yak (don't talk back)
|
|
Don't you give me no dirty looks
|
Your father's hip; he knows what cooks
|
Just tell your hoodlum friend outside
|
You ain't got time to take a ride
|
Yakety yak (don't talk back)
|
|
Yakety yak, yakety yak
|
Yakety yak, yakety yak
|
Yakety yak, yakety yak
|
|
[Fade]
|
Yakety yak, yakety yak
