Lyrics
The words as written. The Gogolis’ lyrics are co-written by a person and AI, and a human chooses the final words.
The room is a disaster. Slow push-in across the mess.
Verse 1
Blocks on the table, socks on the chair,
A tower of teddies — how'd they get up there?
Gambo yells "I've got this! Here I go!"
Gambo's got one speed, and it is not slow!
Chorus
Tidy-up, tidy-up, tidy-up time!
Pick it up, put it back — one, two, three!
Tidy-up, tidy-up, tidy-up time!
A tidy little room for you and me!
Verse 2
Lilly says, "Hey! We can share the load!"
Pass it down the line like a tidy-up road!
One in the basket, two on the shelf —
Nobody has to do it all by themself!
Chorus
Tidy-up, tidy-up, tidy-up time!
Pick it up, put it back — one, two, three!
Tidy-up, tidy-up, tidy-up time!
A tidy little room for you and me!
Verse 3
Nibs says, "Hmm. I don't think that'll work."
Puts down one block with a little tiny smirk.
But one block, two blocks, ten blocks more —
and WOW! You can finally see the floor!
Bridge
... oops.
Everybody freeze!
... Nah — we know what to do!
Tidy-up time, take two!
Chorus
Tidy-up, tidy-up, tidy-up time!
Pick it up, put it back — one, two, three!
Tidy-up, tidy-up, tidy-up time!
A tidy little room for you and me!
Outro
Tidy-up... time!
Nibs smiles. Hold on it.
A note on the lyrics. The green Gogoli is called Lilly. This song was recorded before that name was settled, so the recording still sings the earlier one. The words above are the current ones.

- Gambo, Lilly, Nibs
A tidying song built around sharing the job. Gambo starts too fast, Lilly turns it into a chain so that nobody has to do it all by themself, and Nibs puts down exactly one block before deciding it might work after all.
Then the tower goes over. The bridge holds the mistake for a beat — “… oops. Everybody freeze!” — and starts again with “Tidy-up time, take two!” Nothing is anybody’s fault and nothing is unrecoverable, which is the whole point of the song.
