Move stealthily about the house
baby's trying to sleep.
Move stealthily about the house
whisper when you speak
Move stealthily about the house
don't make that floarboard creak.
Move stealthily about the house,
baby's trying to sleep.

Move stealthily about the house,
grandad's lying in there
Move stealthily about the house
step quietly on the stair.
Move stealthily about the house,
we don't want him to hear.
Move stealthily about the house,
Grandad's dying in there.
