Lyrics
- SpongeBob: Ah. Good morning world. And all who inhabit it.
- Jump out of bed
- Mix 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
- (laughs)
- 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 beautiful Bikini Bottom day!
- Good morning, Patrick!
- Patrick: (yawns) Is it morning already?
- SpongeBob: It sure is! And I'm singing an opening number!
- Patrick: Oh, oh! I want a verse!
- I missed a snack
- This busy schedule makes it hard to be me
- To stay on track
- Now I'll 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: Aw, every single one!
- I'm spending all day underneath
- My favorite rock (Ensemble: Favorite rock...)
- SpongeBob: Bikini Bottom...
- Patrick: Now, what rhymes with rock? (Ensemble: Rhymes with rock...)
- SpongeBob: Bikini Bottom...
- Patrick: 'Nothing rhymes with rock! (Ensemble: Rhymes with rock...)
- Patrick & SpongeBob: It's a typical Bikini Bottom day!
- Squidward: Would you two please keep it down?
- SpongeBob & Patrick: Good morning, Squidward!
- Squidward: Another day, another migraine.

- Sandy: Boy howdy, that was close!
- It's just a little smoke
- A minor setback (Ensemble: Setback...)
- A few more hours at most
- And I'll be done with this here
- Brand new jetpack (Ensemble: Jetpack..)
- And then this Texas squirrel, this country girl
- Will spread her wings and fly
- Her bushy tail, a comet's trail
- Clear across the sky
- Sandy and Ensemble: Above the town and looking down

- Karen: Forever
- Plankton: I've got a plan
- And I went to college so you know it's clever

- If ya love your work, ha!
- Who would say that? Probably
- Some penniless jerk
- Plankton: Soon the day will come
- When they'll all love chum
