Just For Pun and Exactly What It Says on the Tin: Doing work to the tune of music. Disney musicals love this one: "Whistle While You Work" practically defines it. Could go all the way back to using drums to synchronize rowers in galleys, depending on your definition of music. Other Real Life work songs include agricultural workers' songs, hunt songs, cowboy songs, and sea shanties. African-American slaves' work songs, such as field hollers, used call and response, a feature of gospel amd blues that exists to this day. Truth in Television, though usually with lower production values. See also Mickey Mousing. If the chores are part of their profession, it overlaps with Job Song. |

The Simpsons: In the Mary Poppins parody episode "Sherry Bobbins", "A Spoonful of Sugar" is parodied with 'Cut Every Corner': Parodied in "Bart Gets an Elephant", which has Marge put on the radio and tell Bart to "work to the music" when doing chores. Every song the station plays is about how much work sucks (Starting with "Sixteen Tons" and continuing with "Take This Job and Shove It!"). |

According to some of the supplementary material for The Last Jedi, the Lanai Caretakers on the island that Luke Skywalker has taken refuge on have an intrinsically musical culture. To keep rhythm during their repetitive chores, they perform Lanai-song with a mixture of whistles and guttural oscillations and often use their tools such as wash buckets as impromptu percussion instruments. | |

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs: Early in the film, Snow White sings "I'm Wishing" while drawing water from the well—what she is wishing for is a lover to take her away from her life of drudgery. "Whistle While You Work" is one as well, as is obvious from the title. The Dwarfs also sing a song, "Bluddle-Uddle-Um-Dum" (an onomatopeic reference to blowing bubbles underwater), as they wash themselves for dinner. The first half of "Heigh Ho" is sung by the dwarves as they work in the mines. |

"The Work Song" in Cinderella is actually sung by the mice and not Cinderella herself, while the make her first party dress (the one that is later destroyed). Cinderella did sing a song while she worked ("Sing Sweet Nightingale") but it wasn't about work - she was just singing along while her ugly sisters got a music lesson upstairs and did a much better job of it whilst cleaning the floor. "The Work Song" had an earlier version which was to be sung by Cinderella but it was reworked into the mouse version. | |

In The Daniel Tiger Movie: Won't You Be Our Neighbor?, Jodi Platypus and her mother unpack boxes and put together Jodi's room while singing the song "It Takes Time to Make a Place Feel Like Home." In the same movie, the Platypus and Tiger families sing "Everything In Its Place" as they help to put more of the Platypus household in order and search for Jodi's lost book. In "Snowflake Day," everyone sings about the work they're doing to put the Snowflake Day pageant together and talks about how much they like to sing about it before doing so. There's also the show's clean-up song... |

Variation: Santa Claus: The Movie was originally intended as a musical but had a Mid-Development Genre Shift; even so, the melody of one of the Cut Songs, "Making Toys", appears as an instrumental as the elves work on the toys that Claus will deliver on his first Christmas journey as Santa. It would fit the trope perfectly if the lyrics were retained. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic features a few examples. "Winter Wrap-Up" has the eponymous song, with an instrumental version of said song playing as the Ponyvillers finally get organized with Twilight Sparkle's help. "Apple Family Reunion" has the song "Raise This Barn", which Applejack and her family sing as they work together to rebuilt the wrecked barn at Sweet Apple Acres. While it's her profession and not housework, Rarity's song "Art of the Dress (Stitch by Stitch)" is very much as case of this, especially the reprise section as she isn't enjoying it at that point as the other ponies are so demanding, and have a much poorer sense of design. |

"Brazzle Dazzle Day" in Pete's Dragon (1977) isn't about the chore of whitewashing the lighthouse, but that's what they're doing as they start singing, and the dance break of sorts is based around characters breathing on the windows so the other characters can clean them. | |

In Hollow Knight, Myla, the miner bug near the entrance to Crystal Peak, sings a song about burying various people and relatives, which becomes increasingly deranged as she falls victim to The Corruption. Even after being fully zombified, Dream Nailing her reveals that she's still singing it in her head. | |
