《Smoke Shovelling Song》歌词

[00:00:00] Last winter blew so cold no lies

[00:00:08] And my fire smoke would not rise

[00:00:13] Soon as the smoke tried to depart

[00:00:19] It'd be froze up harder that a landlord's heart

[00:00:27] Now I called up the police yes and they came around

[00:00:35] Three days later and very brought down

[00:00:40] The sergeant he gave hysterical croak

[00:00:46] Says what do you think you have going here some kind of joke

[00:00:53] Of course I wasn't laughing

[00:00:59] He says you're causing us officers so much grief

[00:01:06] Why don't you give us some relief

[00:01:10] Why don't you call the fire brigade

[00:01:16] Or maybe why don't you try shovelling the smoke up chimney with a spade

[00:01:33] Now I borrowed a spade from the woman next door

[00:01:40] And I broke up the smoke that remained on the floor

[00:01:46] I shovelling away till the closing day

[00:01:51] And singing a smoke shovelling song

[00:02:06] After working so hard I went out to my yard

[00:02:13] Now I looked up to my chimney so long there was nothing to see there

[00:02:19] Just a thousand foot high way into the sky

[00:02:25] Was a pillar of smoke full of song

[00:02:30] There was an airplane stuck in it

[00:02:32] But I didn't notice at first it was so cunningly disguised as a dragon

[00:02:52] Came the summer at last though it was rainy and fast

[00:03:01] The pillar it melted away

[00:03:08] Now the airplane fell with a big smoky smell

[00:03:12] And echoing around all over the town

[00:03:16] Was the words of the smoke shovelling song

[00:03:21] And anyone telling a bigger story would have to be telling a lie

[00:03:25] And anyone think a bigger one up

[00:03:27] Have to be very high
