歌曲歌詞
Last winter blew so cold no lies
And my fire smoke would not rise
Soon as the smoke tried to depart
It'd be froze up harder that a landlord's heart
Now I called up the police yes and they came around
Three days later and very brought down
The sergeant he gave hysterical croak
Says what do you think you have going here some kind of joke
Of course I wasn't laughing
He says you're causing us officers so much grief
Why don't you give us some relief
Why don't you call the fire brigade
Or maybe why don't you try shovelling the smoke up chimney with a spade
Now I borrowed a spade from the woman next door
And I broke up the smoke that remained on the floor
I shovelling away till the closing day
And singing a smoke shovelling song
After working so hard I went out to my yard
Now I looked up to my chimney so long there was nothing to see there
Just a thousand foot high way into the sky
Was a pillar of smoke full of song
There was an airplane stuck in it
But I didn't notice at first it was so cunningly disguised as a dragon
Came the summer at last though it was rainy and fast
The pillar it melted away
Now the airplane fell with a big smoky smell
And echoing around all over the town
Was the words of the smoke shovelling song
And anyone telling a bigger story would have to be telling a lie
And anyone think a bigger one up
Have to be very high
