Songtekst van The Incredible String Band: Smoke Shovelling Song

Smoke Shovelling Song


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 thatn a landlord's heart

I called up the police and they came around
Three days later and very brought down
The sergeant he gave me this 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 the chimney with a spade"

I borrowed a spade from the woman next door,
And I broke up the smoke that remained on the floor,
I was shovelling away, 'till the closing day singing a smoke-shovelling song

After working so hard I went out to my yard,
And 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,
The airplane fell with a big smoky smell,
And echoing around all over the town,
Was the words of the smoke shovelling song

Any anyone telling a bigger story would have to be telling a lie,
And anyone think a bigger one up,
Have to be very high
