And I’m the shining Scullery-maid;
I’ll keep your pans so bright
That your kitchen will seem a golden dream
And your scullery your delight.
Chorus
Oh, Mr. Burglar, take us to live with you,
Dear Mr. Burglar, take us to live with you.
We’re nieces of your wife, you know—you ought to care for such;
And besides we’re very capable girls, and we could help you much;
So you must see what a scheme ’twould be
