La grande cuisine

Ring, ring, Betty's singing,

Calvin's hooked up in

Baked beans she loves cooking.

Tiny woman lost in a big kitchen

Dream, dream, Betty's yawning

-Air conditioned- doesn't work in.

So long, she's been sleeping.

Don't know the baked beans are burning

Don't know Calvin's blazing.

So that the big kitchen

Betty, your house is burning.

Sweetie, a little bit of your money's leaving

Some heights, south west Brooklyn,
