ode to zeppelin

There's a lady who's sure
That her carpet was old
So, she's making her stairway look better
When she ripped it away
The dust did amaze
And she sneezed as a tack poked her finger
Ooooh, and she's making her stairway look better.

As she sands and she paints
She whines and complains
But she's making her stairway look better
Each stair took four coats
And the paintbrush, it broke
But, in the end, all the work will be worth it.

Ooooooh, the stairs look better.
Ooooooh, the stairs look better.

The newel posts were lame
And needed to change
So she made plans for building new ones
She measured and cut and then cut one more time
'Cause math's really not where her strength lies.

Oooooh, the stairs look better.
Oooooh, they really look better.

A new runner came last
All the staples held fast
And she hoped it would hide all the kids' dirt
Now the stairway was done
And the old was all gone
The stairway is finally much better.

Ooohh ohh.
