Lyrics

Episode version

Children:
We are the mediocre Presidents.
You won't find our faces on dollars or on cents.
There's Taylor, there's Tyler, there's Fillmore and there's Hayes,
There's William Henry Harrison.
Harrison:
I died in thirty days!
Children:
We...
Are...
The...
Adequate, forgettable,
Occasionally regrettable
Caretaker Presidents of the U.S.A.!

Album version

Seymour Skinner:
Good evening, everyone, and welcome to a wonderful evening of theater and picking up after yourselves. (someone coughs) We begin with a tribute to our lesser-known Presidents.
(drum roll, a bugle plays "Hail to the Chief")
Children:
We are the mediocre Presidents.
You won't find our faces on dollars or on cents.
There's Taylor, there's Tyler, there's Fillmore and there's Hayes,
There's William Henry Harrison.
Harrison:
I died in thirty days!
Children:
We...
Are...
The...
Adequate, forgettable,
Occasionally regrettable
Caretaker Presidents of the U.S.A.!
(bugle plays "Hail to the Chief," trombone plays "Shave and a Haircut," tuba plays "Two bits")
(applause)

Behind the Laughter

It is the forty-first track on the album Go Simpsonic with The Simpsons.
