The Cleaner Songtext
von Squid

I′m the cleaner, all the lights are off when I arrive
I'm the cleaner, but you don′t even know my name
Who are these people I don't even know?
A faceless hive with a faceless hello
I'm the cleaner, but you don′t even know my name
I′m the cleaner, but you don't even know my name

We′re so tired and we're so done
I fall asleep to the sound of a gun
I′ve got a new diet, I'm ahead of the trends
I read the features and in between the lines
And in between the lines, and in between the lines
And in between the lines

They make me do it all and so I clean that shop
I′m the cleaner who gets home whose body drops down
On the floor, as you find it there with a brush and mop
I dance with DVDs and books, dancing to rock and pop


I'm a cleaner, yes, and I can sweep that shop
Real love and real labour in this modern job
And you'll find me standing there with a brush and mop
I dance with DVDs and books

Team leader, team player, I′m the cleaner
Team leader, team player, I′m the cleaner
Come downstairs, I've got a room out back
Corrosive liquid makes your skin turn black
I′m the cleaner, but you don't even know my name
I′m the cleaner, but you don't even know my name
I′m the cleaner, but you don't even know my name

They make me do it all and so I clean that shop
I'm the cleaner who gets home whose body drops down
On the floor, as you find it there with a brush and mop
I dance with DVDs and books, dancing to rock and pop

I′m a cleaner, yes, and I can sweep that shop
Real love and real labour in this modern job
And you′ll find it standing there with a brush and mop
I dance with DVDs and books

Keep me extra time and keep me working extra hours so I can dance for you
I'm in my favourite shoes, I′m in that sequin blouse and I'll dance
Keep me extra time and keep me working extra hours so I can dance for you
I′m in my favourite shoes and in that sequin blouse, and I'll dance


So I can dance, so I can dance
So I can dance, so I can dance
So I can dance, so I can dance
So I can dance, so I can dance
So I can dance, so I can dance
So I can dance, so I can dance

So I can dance
So I can dance, so I can dance

So I can dance, so I can dance (keep me extra time and keep me working extra hours)
So I can dance, so I can dance
So I can dance, so I can dance (I′m in my favourite shoes, I'm in that sequin blouse)
So I can dance, so I can dance
So I can dance, so I can dance (keep me overtime and keep me working extra hours)
So I can dance, so I can dance, dance, dance, dance
