The Lyrics

Oh Draino boy
The pipes, the pipes, are frozen
We're drinking gin, no water from the tap
The summer's here, the flowers need a hosin'
And now the pipes, the pipes, they are all trapped

So come unthawed, and water will come gushing
And I can wash my dishes til they glow
And I will do a little bit of flushing
Oh Draino Boy, oh draino boy, I need you so

Please get unclogged
My violets are dying
The well is dead, as dead a well may be
The plumber said, "My bill,
It is high flying,
And it'll take some time til you pay me"

Then I shall feel that trickle from the faucet
And then my hands will clean and cleaner be
The simple things, you love more when you've lost it
I'll simply fill my jug the moment you are free

I'll simply fill my jug the moment you are free
