and you want to have a little fun
You brush your teeth ch ch ch ch ch ch, ch ch ch ch ch ch...
When you wake up in the morning at a quarter to two
and you want something to do
You brush your teeth ch ch ch ch ch ch, ch ch ch ch ch ch....
When you wake up in the morning at a quarter to three
and you wanna flash your smile at me
You brush your teeth ch ch ch ch ch ch, ch ch ch ch ch ch....
When you wake up in the morning at a quarter to four
and you think you hear a knock on the door
You brush your teeth ch ch ch ch ch ch, ch ch ch ch ch ch....
When you wake up in the morning at a quarter to five
and you just can't wait to come alive
You brush your teeth ch ch ch ch ch ch, ch ch ch ch ch ch....
