Story behind the song
Facing selling my large suburban home and squeezing into a small city apartment.
Lyrics
Let’s get the clean up out of the way What do you say Let’s start today Go through the house, start throwing away So we can start moving on Let’s get rid of the stuff we don’t need The books we don’t read Just give it all free Throw it out fast ‘cause it’s growing like weeds And we have to start moving on Let’s let go of the clothes we don’t wear The torn underwear All piled up in there Empty the closets, give ‘em some air So we can start moving on Let’s clean out all the papers we kept Stuffed in the files Piled on the desk Whatever we need we’ll find on the ‘Net So we can start moving on Let’s dispose of the stuff that’s all broke That we meant to fix Now that was a joke All of this rubbish is making us choke And we have to start moving on... ...Do it now Stop procrastinating Do it now That big chore is waiting The longer it sits The harder it seems So come on Do it now Plunge right in Yeah, the water’s fine It feels great When it’s done on time Take the first step The thing is to start Go ahead Do it now Get yourself up and out of your bed Stop it from looming over your head I know it seems scary I know it seems tough But putting it off just makes it more rough Do it now And you’ll feel the pride Of accomplishment Swelling up inside There’s one less thing To worry about So get out of your chair Wipe off that pout Get it all finished Over and out Do it now Do it now.
