Up on the Rooftop
Up on the Rooftop
The robber stops
From thin air
Pops two cops
They got a tip
That he'd be here
From his friend
Who's deal went queer
Ho, ho, ho
Who shouldn't go
Ho ho ho
Who shouldn't go
Up on the rooftop
Slick, Slick, Slick
Down through the chimney
They go real quick
First comes the room
With lots of silver
There's not much time
For him to pilfer
He has the cops
Right on his tail
Now is not the time
To be a snail
Ho, ho, ho
Who shouldn't go
Ho ho ho
Who shouldn't go
Up on the rooftop
Slick, Slick, Slick
Down through the chimney
They go real quick
Then comes the room
With a great big vase
Run around wildly
Not much space
Pick up the vase
Give a big throw
Look out, boys
Don't be slow
Ho, ho, ho
Who shouldn't go
Ho ho ho
Who shouldn't go
Up on the rooftop
Slick, Slick, Slick
Down through the chimney
They go real quick
Out through the living room
Toward the door
Fast as he can
He can't do more
Hot on his tail
The police chase him
Right to the arms
Of more of them
Ho, ho, ho
Who shouldn't go
Ho ho ho
Who shouldn't go
Up on the rooftop
Slick, Slick, Slick
The cuffs go on
Click, Click, Click
