In A Day's Work



In A Day's Work is a deleted song from The Jungle Book.

Song Lyrics
Singer: When the sun comes up, unbutton those eyes

And jump right out of that bed

When the sun comes up, you should also rise

Or you're never gonna get ahead

If you love life and you like to eat

Your duties you shouldn't shirk

Get out in the world, move out in those feet

It's all in a day's work, in a day's work, in a day's work

Even this big Earth moves on its axis

And the sun gets up and shines from east to west

Each one to his job 'cause these are what the facts is

What they can do you can do a little too at best

Now the early bird who catches the worm

Can eat till he starts to burst

He can eat as much as a pachyderm

'Cause he managed to get there first

So rise with the sun, start off of the run

Where the fruits and berries all lurk

If you don't get fill till they day is done

It's all in a day's work, in a day's work, in a day's work

(Guitar and Piano break)

Why, even this big Earth moves on its axis

Singer #2: And the sun gets up and shines from east to west

Singer #3: Each one to his job 'cause these are what the facts is

All: What they can do you can do a little too at best

Singer #1: And I don't mean rest

Singer #3: Now, the early bird who catches the worm

Can eat till he starts to burst

Singer #2: He can eat as much as a pachyderm

'Cause he managed to get there first

Singer #1: So rise with the sun, start off of the run

Where the fruits and berries all lurk

Singer #2: If you don't get fill till they day is done

Singer #3: Remember, still you're the lucky one

Singer #1: You can eat till you weigh a ton

(speaking) Oh, my poor stomach.

(singing) But it's all

All: But it's all

In a day's work, in a day's work, in a day's work
