Bikini Bottom Day
[SPONGEBOB, spoken]
Ahh... Good morning, world!
And all who inhabit it
(sung)
Jumped out of bed
Mixed up a breakfast for my favorite pet snail

[GARY]
Meow

[SPONGEBOB]
Full steam ahead
The "S. S. I Am Ready" is about to set sail!
This kind of day
Couldn't get much better but it keeps on trying (Nga-a-a-a!)
I'm on my way
Somewhere, there's a Krabby Patty that needs frying
And who's the lucky sponge in the mirror
Who is living his dream?
Who's always extra careful with his dental hygiene?
Gary, it's me!

Happy just to be here in the world renowned
Bikini Bottom, how I love this town
Bikini Bottom when the sun shines down
On a typical Bikini Bottom day
[SPONGEBOB, spoken]
Good morning, Patrick!

[PATRICK, spoken]
Ugh... is it morning already?

[SPONGEBOB, spoken]
It sure is, and I'm singing an opening number!

[PATRICK, spoken]
Ooh-ooh! I want a verse!
(sung)
I missed a snack
This busy schedule makes it hard to be me
To stay on track
Now I have to eat it while I'm watching TV

There might not be time for a nap
But I'll do what I can
They're showing all the episodes of

[PATRICK & SPONGEBOB]
Mermaid Man!

[PATRICK]
Oh, every single one!
[PATRICK, COMPANY, BOTH]
I'm standing all day underneath my favorite rock (Favorite rock...)
Bikini Bottom - Now what rhymes with rock? (Rhymes with rock...)
Bikini Bottom - Nothing rhymes with rock! (Rhymes with rock...)
It's a typical Bikini Bottom day

[SQUIDWARD, spoken]
Would you two please keep it down?

[SPONGEBOB & PATRICK, spoken]
Good morning, Squidward!

[SQUIDWARD, spoken]
Another day, another migraine

(sung with Company)
When I want some quiet, there's nowhere to go
A sensitive artist can't get a moment's piece
With these two idiots in stereo
They never go away (Never go away...)
Typical Bikini Bottom day...

[FRENCH NARRATOR, spoken]
We now follow SpongeBob pass the tree dome
Home to Sandy Cheeks the Squirrel
Hard at work at her latest invention
[BOOM!]

[SANDY, Company, BOTH]
Boy, howdy! That was close!
It's just a little smoke, a minor setback... (Setback!)
A few more hours at most
And I'll be done with this here brand new jetpack... (Jetpack!)
And then this Texas squirrel, this country girl
Will spread her wings and fly!
Her bushy tail and comet's trail
Clear across the sky!
Above the town and looking down
On a typical Bikini Bottom day...ayy!!!
(Ay! Ay! Ay!!!)

[SPONGEBOB, spoken]
Bye, Sandy! I'm off to work at the Krusty Krab!

[FRENCH NARRATOR, spoken]
Ah, yes. Bikini Bottom's most popular dining establishment. Home to the Krabby Patty, owned and operated by Mr. Eugene Krabs
And across town, the least popular restaurant, the Chum Bucket, run by Sheldon J. Plankton. Two arch-nemeses locked in a fast-food cold war. !

[MR. KRABS, Plankton, Karen]
Wind's from the west
Everything you look, the skies are clear and sunny
Good weather's best
When you're in the mood to make a ton of money... Ah-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga!

[PLANKTON]
Ah-ha-ha! Laugh while you can
Until the day you laugh no more forever

[KAREN]
Forever

[PLANKTON]
I've got a plan
And I went to college so you know it's clever...

[MR. KRABS]
They say that "money doesn't matter
If you love your work", hah!
Who would say that?
Probably some penniless jerk

[PLANKTON]
Soon the day will come...
When they all love chum

[PLANKTON with MR. KRABS & KAREN]
It's just a matter of time... (Bikini Bottom)
Til' I get there mid-line... (Bikini Bottom)
And this town is all mine!
Just a typical Bikini Bottom day

[SPONGEBOB, spoken]
SpongeBob reporting for duty at the greatest restaurant in the entire ocean! Where's Mr. Krabs?

[SQUIDWARD, spoken]
It's "Take Your Kid to Work Day."

[MR. KRABS, spoken]
Just think, Pearl, me darling daughter. One day, this will all be yours. Soon as you graduate high school, I'll start you as manager!

[PEARL, spoken]
But I have my own dreams, daddy!

[SPONGEBOB, spoken]
Um— Mr. Krabs, if she doesn't want to be manager, I know someone who'd be great for the job!

[MR. KRABS, spoken]
You?! My boy, you're just a wee simple sponge. A fry cook's all you'll ever be!

[SPONGEBOB]
Why can't he see?
I wore my good shoes and I've got my tie on
Maybe it's me
Am I just a simple sponge you can't rely on?
Come on, Mr. Krabs
I could do it if you give me one chance
Then everyone would say
"Good morning, Mr. SquarePants!"
I would never rest
Until I was the best!!!

[MR. KRABS, spoken]
SpongeBob, get in the kitchen! It's opening time!

[ALL]
In the world renowned (World renowned)
Bikini Bottom, our own hometown (Own hometown)
Bikini Bottom and the sun shines down (Sun shines down)
The sun shines down (Sun shines down)
