I think i am in the wrong job here... no wonder everybody is emigrating there, if cleaning toilets gives me enough to buy a penthouse and plenty of holidays, bring me the toilet brush!!!!!

see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world. hehehehe
