The Garbageman" Lyrics (Sung to the tune of "The Candyman")
Marge: I'm really proud of your, Homey; but can the garbageman really do all the things you said?
Homer: Oh, the garbageman can, Marge. The garbageman can...
Who can take your trash out?
Stomp it down for you?
Shake the plastic bag and do the twisty thingie too?
The garbageman!
Garbagemen: Oh, the garbageman can!
The garbage man can
And he does it with a smile
And never judges you.
Marge: Who can take this diaper?
Garbageman: I don't mind at all.
Wiggum: Who can clean me up before the big policeman's ball?
The garbageman!
Garbagemen: Yes, the garbageman can!
U2: The sanitation folks
Are jolly, friendly blokes,
Courteous and easygoing!
The Edge: They mop up when you're overflowing...
Bono: And tell you when your arse is showing!
Apu: Who can?
Mel: Who can?
Ned: Who can?
Oscar the Grouch: Who can?
Homer: The garbageman can!
Bart+Lisa: 'Cause he's Homer Simpson, man!
All: He cleans the world for... YOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!
| (During the end credits, U2 is on a plane)
Adam: Look guys, I got Springfield spoon for my spoon collection.
The Edge: Oh, here we go.
Bono: How many spoons have you got now, Adam?
Adam: Nine. If I didn't have my spoons, I'd go insane.
Bono: Can I see it? (Throws spoon)
Adam: My spoon!
(It hits Mr. Burns in the head)
Mr. Burns: Oww! Wankers.
| Moe: Woah, woah, hey, you didn't pay for the beer
Homer: Can't someone else do it?!
Moe/Homer: hahahahahahahahaa (Homer exits, you hear a gun)
Moe: Seriously, gimme the money!
| Homer: Okay, before I show you, who wants to guess how I got the money?
Bart: Dealing drugs?
Lisa: Drugs?
