[00:00.42]Alright, children, let's clean up this room.
[00:03.12]Aw, mam...
[00:04.24]Do we have to?
[00:05.30]Now, now. I know a little secret that will make the job go twice as fast.
[00:09.49]
[00:10.74]If there's a task that must be done,
[00:12.92]Don't turn your tail and run,
[00:15.55]Don't pout, don't sob,
[00:17.73]Just do a half-assed job.
[00:22.48]
[00:23.30]If you cut every corner,
[00:28.29]It is really not so bad.
[00:30.29]
[00:30.92]Everybody does it,
[00:32.48]Even mom and dad.
[00:34.67]If nobody sees it,
[00:39.23]Then nobody gets mad.
[00:41.42]Bart: It's the American way!
[00:45.23]Sherry: The policeman on the street
[01:05.23]Needs some time to rest his feet.
[01:07.86]Chief Wiggum: Fighting crime is not my cup of tea!
[01:11.11]Sherry: And the clerk who runs the store
[01:14.36]Can charge a little more
[01:16.49]For meat
[01:17.36]Apu: For meat!
[01:18.98]Sherry: And milk
[01:20.42]Apu: And milk!
[01:22.42]Sherry & Apu: From 1984!
[01:30.18]Sherry: If you cut every corner,
[01:35.36]You'll have more time for play!
[01:37.74]All: It's the American way!
