Song lyrics Yakety Yak by The Coasters

Written by: Jerry Leiber, Mike Stoller
#1 Aug '58 Hot 100

Take out the papers and the trash
Or you don't get no spending cash
If you don't scrub that kitchen floor
You ain't gonna rock and roll no more
Yakety yak (don't talk back)

Just finish cleaning up your room
Let's see that dust fly with that broom
Get all that garbage out of sight
Or you don't go out Friday night
Yakety yak (don't talk back)

You just put on your coat and hat
And walk yourself to the laundrymat
And when you finish doing that
Bring in the dog and put out the cat
Yakety yak (don't talk back)

(Bridge)

Don't you give me no dirty looks
Your father's hip, he knows what cooks
Just tell your hoodlum friend outside
You ain't got time to take a ride
Yakety yak (don't talk back)

Yakety yak, yakety yak
