Calling all Simpsons Gurus

Canaboid

Thers a part in an episode where Bart is singing/chanting "Mum it's broken, Mum it's broken, Mum it's broken".
Thats all I can remember. Can anyone enlighten me as to which episode and more importantly where I can d/l the sound clip.

I don't remember which episode it was, but as far as I can remember the chant is from when Bart is trying to help out in the kitchen and he can't open a tin can, saying the tin opener is broken.

I should point out cranberry sauce is used at Thanksgiving too.

It was the Thanksgiving one.

Bart wrecked Lisa's display piece and ran away - he was interviewed by Kent Brockman in a homeless shelter "on the wrong side of the tracks".

Maggie makes a dangerous trek up the stairs, dodging a skateboard, frayed
electrical wires, and other roadblocks. Lisa shows Maggie the centerpiece
she's been working on, ``a tribute to the trailblazing women who made our
country great,'' including Georgia O'Keefe, Susan B. Anthony, and Margery
Stoneman Douglas (who worked to preserve the Everglades). She invites
Maggie to make a contribution. Maggie scrawls on the centerpiece with a
magic marker, and Lisa embraces her. ``Oh, thank you.''

In the kitchen, Marge asks Bart to stay out of her way, so he offers to
help out. Marge asks him to do the cranberry sauce. Bart has trouble
finding the can, then the can opener. Then he is unable to get the can
opener to work.

It's broken, Mom. ... Mom, it's broken. ... [sings] Mom-it's-brok-en,
Mom-it's-brok-en, Mom-it's-brok-en, Mom-it's-brok-en....
-- Bart `helps out' in the kitchen, ``Bart vs. Thanksgiving''

Marge opens the can, and Bart slowly lets the sauce glop onto the plate,
still in the cylindrical shape from the can. ``Ah, cranberry sauce a la
Bart.'' Marge asks Bart to put it in the fridge, but Bart has already
left. Before Marge gets to it, the sauce collapses into an amorphous glob.

We hire illegal immigrants to open our cranberry slop in a can.
