The Li'l Butler Theme is a song that plays in the episode "Maximum Capacity". It serves as the theme song to the in-universe fictional sitcom Li'l Butler.
Lyrics
| An orphaned boy with sass and pep Got dropped off on our mansion step, Li'l Butler, Li'l Butler, We washed his face of dirt and leaves, And now he works here as our Jeeves, Li'l Butler, Li'l Butler, Oh, littlest butler, Oh, you're the butler who butlers our hearts, So mop the floor and dust the shelves And teach us lessons 'bout ourselves, Li'l Butler, Li'l Butler that's you! |
Notes
In the demo version, the lyric is "Oh, you're the butler who touches our hearts".
A Word From The Composer
"The Demo for the Lil' Butler theme!
I love cheesy sitcoms, so when the idea for Liāl Butler came up, I instantly started working on a theme song. The show is an unholy mix of Mr. Belvedere and Webster, so I tried to hit the same kind of dorky vibe!
Rebecca played the uke! Lyrics and [off-key] singing by me!"
