Lyrics
We consider every day a plus

To spend it with a platypus

We're always so ecstatic

'Cause he's semi-aquatic

Our Ornithorhynchus anatinus

Brings smiles to the both of us

Life's never fuddy-duddy

With our web-footed buddy

When we're brushing our teeth, (ooh) it's better

Tying our shoes, (oh, yeah) it's better

Combing our hair, it's better

Like we're a cheese sandwich and he's the cheddar

Blinking our eyes, (oh, yeah) it's better

Breathing in and out, (so much better) it's better

Sitting in a chair, it's better

And taking a bath, just a little bit wetter

Every day is such a dream

When you start it with a monotreme

He's duckbilled and he's beaver-tailed and hairy

(You know that he's hairy)

Everything's better with Perry

(Everything's better with Perry)

Everything's better with Perry

(Everything's better with Perry)

Everything is better with Perry

(Everything is better)

(Everything's better with Perry)

(Everything is better with Perry)

Everything's better and we

Just want to tell you Perry

Everything's better with you

(Better with you)

 * When "It's better" is said with a purple background, Ferb's mouth doesn't move.
