Lyrics Cut Every Corner - The Simpsons

If there's a task that must be done
Don't turn your tail and run
Don't pout, don't sob
Just do a half-assed job!

If, you
Cut every corner, it is really not so bad
Everybody does it
Even Mom and Dad

If nobody sees it
Then nobody gets mad

It's the American way!

The policeman on the beat
Needs some time to rest his feet

(Fighting crime is not my cup of tea!)

And the clerk who runs the store
Can charge a little more
For meat!

(For meat!)

And milk

(And milk!)

From 1984!

If, you
Cut every corner
You'll have more time for play!

It's the American way!
