Lyrics[edit]

Standard[edit]

Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a dream.

"Arthur Cleans Up" variation[edit]

Chorus: Floss, floss, floss your teeth
Make your mouth feel clean.
Gargle and spit, gargle and spit...
Arthur: ...to prevent gingivitis and other forms of periodontal disease.

Arthur, It's Only Rock 'n' Roll variation[edit]

Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily, I said, "merrily, merrily."
Oh, yeah! Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a ... dre-e-e-e-e-eam!

"Cents-Less" variation[edit]

Ten, ten, ten is nice.
It's the highest number we know.
If someday they invent T.V.,
I think I'll have a show.
