I have no Shire Horse
To pull my narrowboat
I’ll go and see the carpenter
See what he suggests
“Have you tried Tik and Tok,
The robotic dance pair?
They’re not enthusiasts
But of course the law is on your side”
Singing a song
Just singing a song
When my grave’s waist-deep in meadow grass
No more strawberry jam for the Guild
Will they still say, whenever bobsleigh’s on,
“Hey I would love to have a go at that”?
Stromsgodset Under-Fives
Did the offy by us
I spoke to Farmer Coombes
Had other things on his mind:
“Them Massey Fergusons
Rub me up the wrong way
And have you seen my son?
Wears his baseball cap the wrong way round”
Singing a song
Just singing a song
When my grave’s waist-deep in meadow grass
No more strawberry jam for the Guild
Will there still be in the back pages
Adverts for The Original Breton Shirt?
Singing a song, singing a song
Singing a song, singing a song
Singing a song, singing a song
Singing a song, singing a song
Singing a song, singing a song
Singing a song, singing a song
Singing a song, singing a song
Singing a song, singing a song
Singing a song, singing a song
Singing a song, singing a song
Singing a song, singing a song
Singing a song…
