Now I go cleanin' windows to earn an honest bob

For a nosy parker it's an interestin' job



Now it's a job that just suits me

A window cleaner you would be

If you can see what I can see

When I'm cleanin' windows



Honeymoonin' couples too

You should see them bill 'n coo

You'd be surprised at things they do

When I'm cleanin' windows



In my profession I'll work hard

But I'll never stop

I'll climb this blinkin' ladder

Till I get right to the top



The blushin' bride, she looks divine

The bridegroom he is doin' fine

I'd rather have his job than mine

When I'm cleanin' windows



The chambermaids' sweet names I call

It's a wonder I don't fall

My mind's not on my work at all

When I'm cleanin' windows



I know a fella, such a swell

He has a thirst, that's plain to tell

I've seen him drink his bath as well

When I'm cleanin' windows



Oh, in my profession I'll work hard

But I'll never stop

I'll climb this blinkin' ladder

Till I get right to the top



Pyjamas lyin' side by side

Ladies nighties I have spied

I've often seen what goes inside

When I'm cleanin' windows



------ banjo ------



Now there's a famous talkie queen

She looks a flapper on the screen

She's more like eightie than eighteen

When I'm cleanin' windows



She pulls her hair all down behind

Then pulls down her... never mind

And after that pulls down the blind

When I'm cleanin' windows



In my profession I'll work hard

But I'll never stop

I'll climb this blinkin' ladder

Till I get right to the top



An old maid walks around the floor

She's so fed up, one day I'm sure

She'll drag me in and lock the door

When I'm cleanin' windows



When I'm cleanin' windows
