Working every night at a restaurant in town
That failed its health inspection
People wave their hands so that I’ll come around
I know that I’ll hear a grumbling in my ear
Waiter there’s a fly
There’s a fly in my soup, waiter
“Yes, the chef once was a tailor”
Waiter there’s a fly
There’s a fly in my soup, waiter
“Hope that he’s a water skater boi”

Sometimes give the answer, “One is all I see -
Two or more cost extra, you get this one for free”
Then I move along, another table calling me
Where I hear again the words that just make me grin
Waiter there’s a fly
There’s a fly in my soup, waiter
“What are you – a protein hater?”
Waiter there’s a fly
“Well I’ll dry him out, then later
Put him in the pepper grater”

Waiter there’s a fly

“Please don’t say it loud so that others can hear
Or everyone will want one.”
Then I tell a dude who gives me a sneer
“Better this way, guy, than having soup on your fly”
Waiter there’s a fly
There’s a fly in my soup, waiter
“Yes the ants are running late, sir”
Waiter there’s a fly
There’s a fly in my soup, waiter
“Yes and don’t forget – we cater”

Waiter there’s a fly
“Try the shoofly pie”

Waiter there’s a fly
There’s a fly in my soup, waiter
“Yes, I’ll bring the others later”
Waiter there’s a fly
“Wait until you see what is under your steak”
Waiter there’s a – eeew!
