Somebody has to go polish the stars,

Somebody has to go polish the stars,

They're looking a little bit dull.

Somebody has to go polish the stars,

For the eagles and starlings and gulls

Have all been complaining they're tarnished and worn,

They say they want new ones we cannot afford.

So please get your rags

And your polishing jars,

Somebody has to go polish the stars.

― Shel Silverstein, A Light in the Attic
