THE WORK SONG • Written by Disney • Made in the 1950s • Used in Disney’s Cinderella
Lyrics • [Jack:]Cinderelly, CinderellyNight and day it's CinderellyMake the fire, fix the breakfastWash the dishes, do the mopping[Girl mice:]And the sweeping and the dustingThey always keep her hopping [Jack:]She goes around in circlesTill she's very, very dizzyStill they holler
THE PAST AND PRESENT • Historically, woman only had that for a job. • Now they are equal.
Relevant to Current Issues • Cinderella is like a worker with bad working conditions. • The Girl Mouse, Jack and Gus are like the Union supporting her.
Terkel Quote • “Work is…violence to the spirit as well as the body”(Terkel). • Cinderella is force to work day and night. • At the end of the day, her body and spirit feels exhausted.
Oral History • The Work Song relates to the oral history “Mother” by Elise Klein. • The mom stays home all day and do the cleaning and cooking, etc. • The Stepmother and Stepsisters of Cinderella forces her to stay home all day and do all the work by herself.
