== Lyrics ==
:Homer:
:BART!
:Marge:
:Go to your room!
:Bart:
:Yeah, right!
:Well, you're damned if you do ... What are we talking about?
:Well, you're damned if you do ... Where's your sense of humor?
:Well, you're damned if you do,
:And you're damned if you don't.
:Homer:
:BART!!!
:Bart:
:Lemme start at the start, then take it away.
:My name is Simpson, Bartholomew J.
:That's Bart with an "art" and a capital "B"
:Then "Simp" plus "S-O-N," that's me.
:Introductions aside, let's move right along,
:You can all sing along at the sound of the gong.
:Once upon a time, about a week ago,
:All of a sudden, trouble started to grow.
:Alarm was buzzing, I was snoozing.
:S'posed to get up now, but I was refusing
:To let reality become an intrusion,
:'Cuz in Dreamy Dreamland, I was cruising.
:But the buzz kept buzzing, my head kept fuzzing,
:Gave the radio a throw and I heard an explosion.
:Homer:
:D'oh!
:Bart:
:Opened up my eyes, to my surprise,
:There stood Homer and his temperature rised.
:I was chilling, he was yelling,
:Face all distorted, 'cuz he was propelling.
:It wasn't what he said, but more of his tone
:The usual jive, put your nose to the grindstone.
:I said, "I'm real sorry." But that didn't cut it.
:I tried to protest, but Dad said...
:Homer:
:Shut it!
:Get up, mow the lawn! Move it on the double!
:'Cause if you don't, you're in deep, deep trouble!
:Singers:
:Trouble!
:Homer:
:BART!
:Singers:
:Deep, deep trouble!
:Homer:
:Bart!
:Secondary Singers:
:Come on, come on!
:Singers:
:One, two, trouble!
:Secondary Singers:
:You wanted to snuggle!
:Bart:
:Where's your sense of humor, man?
:Singers:
:Deep, deep trouble!
:And they go a little something like this.
:Hit it!
:Bart:
:So I'm in the front yard, mowing like crazy,
:Sweating like a pig, and the sun is blazy.
:Homer's in the driveway, getting in the car
:With Mom and Lisa, hope they're going real far.
:Then Dad yells,
:Homer:
:BART!!!
:Bart:
:And I go, "Yo"!
:He goes,
:Homer:
:You done yet?
:Bart:
:And I go, "No."
:So he goes,
:Homer:
:Oh! You're too slow!
:Bart:
:So I step on the gas to speed up the mow.
:Didn't see that sprinkler underneath that tree.
:Wham! Krrpsh!! Raining on me!
:I go, "Whoa!" Homer goes,
:Homer:
:D'oh!
:Now you can't go to the boat show!
:Bart:
:This is my thanks after working my butt off?
:Homer revs the motor and they all start to putt off.
:Soaked to the bone, standing in a puddle.
:No one needs to tell me I'm in deep, deep trouble.
:Secondary singers:
:Come on, come on!
:Singers:
:Trouble!
:Marge:
:Go to your room!
:Homer:
:Bart!
:Bart:
:Yeah, right.
:Marge:
:Go to your room!
:Singers:
:Deep, deep trouble!
:Marge:
:Go to your room!
:Homer:
:Bart!
:Secondary singers:
:Come on, come on!
:Singers:
:The yard begins to bubble!
:Bart:
:You're damned if you do...
:Homer:
:Bart!
:Bart:
:You're damned if you do...
:Homer:
:Bart! Bart!
:Singers:
:Deep, deep trouble!
:Bart:
:You're damned if you do, and you're damned if you don't.
:Secondary singers:
:Come on, come on!
:Homer
:D'oh!
:Bart:
:As soon as they're gone, I'm stretched on the lawn,
:Looking at the sky with my sunshades on.
:Now, I never ever claimed that I was a smarty,
:But inspiration hits me: LET'S HAVE A PARTY!
:Called up my posse. They were here in a flash!
:They brought all their pals, we started to thrash.
:There was romping and stomping and occasional crash,
:A fist fight or two, and Nintendo for cash.
:We raided the fridge, dogs raided the trash,
:I got a little worried when the windows got smashed.
:The next thing you know, Mom and Dad are home.
:The kids disappear, and I'm all alone.
:Everything's silent except for my moan
:And the low bluesy tone of a saxophone.
:They look at me, then they go into a huddle,
:I get the sinking sensation I'm in deep, deep trouble.
:Singers:
:Trouble!
:Homer
:D'oh!
:Marge:
:Go to your room!
:Bart:
:Oh, give me a break!
:Singers:
:Deep, deep trouble!
:Homer:
:Hey, what is this ... Bart! D'oh!
:Singers:
:No need to struggle!
:Marge:
:Go to your room!
:Bart:
:Oh, yeah.
:Marge:
:Bar-Bar ... Go to your room!
:Homer:
:D'oh!
:Singers:
:Deep, deep trouble!
:Marge:
:Go to your room!
:Homer:
:Bart!
:Bart:
:No heat to beat.
:Singers:
:Come on, come on!
:Bart:
:There's a little epilogue to my tale of sadness,
:I was dragged down the street by his Royal Dadness.
:We rounded the corner and came to a stop,
:Threw me inside Jake's Barber Shop.
:I said, "Please, sir, just a little off the top."
:Dude shaved me bare, gave me a lollipop.
:So on my head, there's nothing but stubble.
:Man, I hate being in deep, deep trouble.
:Singers:
:Trouble!
:Bart:
:You're damned if you do...
:Well, you're damned if you do...
:Singers:
:Deep, deep trouble!
:Bart:
:You're damned if you do, and you're damned if you don't. Aw, come on, man!
:Singers:
:Nothing but stubble!
:Bart:
:You're damned if you do ... What are we talking about?
:Well, you're damned if you do ... Where's your sense of humor?
:Singers:
:Deep, deep trouble!
:Bart:
:You're damned if you do, and you're damned if you don't.
:Homer:
:D'oh!
:Singers:
:Trouble! Deep, deep trouble!
:Homer:
:Grrr...
:Bart:
:Ha ha ha!
:Singers:
:Trouble! Deep, deep trouble!
