- The Incredible String Band
- Last winter blew so cold no lies,
And my fire smoke would not rise;
Soon as the smoke tried to depart,
Itd be froze up harder thatn a landlords 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 wasnt laughing)
He says, 'Youre causing us officers so much grief,
Why dont you give us some relief?
Why dont you call the fire brigade?
Or maybe why dont 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 didnt 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.
