We're Moving Out

Char-li-hee works at the country club course

Savin’ his twenties for some day

Mama and Dada got a brand new red door

And said "Charlie move out by this Friday”

Ah but selling your house can give you

A heart attack, ack, ack, ack, ack, ack

You ought-a move right now

Who needs a house out in Limerick?

It costs all of us too much money.

 

And it seems like a brand new house

If we move all our stuff out

Mama, if we sell this house, then we’re movin out

Mm, We’re movin out, mm oo oo uh huh mm hm

 

Charlie gets weary walking on his feet

At night he becomes an improviser

He plays with Philly performers

Down on the Sansom Street

Across from the comedy center

And he's honing all of his skills for

A funny act act act act act act

You ought-a move by now

If he can't move in with his brother

At least he can joke with performers

 

And it seems like a brand new house

If we move all our stuff out

Mama, if we sell this house, then we’re movin out

Mm, We’re movin out, mm oo oo uh huh mm hm

 

You should never live at home and lose your mi mi mi mi mi mind

You ought-a move by now

You can pay Uncle Sam when you have the time

It costs all of us too much money.

And it seems like a brand new house

If we move all our stuff out

Mama, if we sell this house, then we’re movin out

Mm, We’re movin out, mm oo oo uh huh mm hm
