Take out the papers and the trash
Or you don't get no spending cash.
If you don't scrub that kitchen floor
You ain't gonna rock and roll no more.
Yakety yak.  Don't talk back

Just finish cleanin' up your room
Let's see the dust fly with that broom
Get all that garbage out of sight
Or you don't go out Friday night.
Yakety yak.  Don't talk back.

Yakety yak.  Yakety yak.
Yakety yak.  Yakety yak.
Talkity talkity talkity talk.
Sqawkity sqawk. Sqawkity sqawk.

You just put on you coast and hat
And walk yourself to the laundromat
And when you finish doin' that
Bring in the dog and put out the cat.
Yakety yak.  Don't talk back.

Chorus

Yakety yakety yakety yak.
I'm sickety-sick of all the flak
Sqawkity sqawk.  Sqawkity sqawk.
Don't talk back!

Yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak.
Yakety yakety yakety yak.
Talkity talk.  Talkity talk.
Yakety yak.  Yakety yak
