Stand on one leg and point up at the sun. Grab hold of your nose, we're sure it must be fun. But no matter who or what you are we know something you'll enjoy by far To sing out the song, the bucket of water song. as Verse 1 Though life is hard we do the best we can. Against evil we guard to help our fellow man. We put the baddies in their place, we fight the foes of the human race, But whatever the case , we take it in the face.
