right said fred both of us together
one each end and steady as we go oh
tried to shift it couldn't even lift it
we was getting nowhere
and so we had a cuppa tea and
right said fred give a shout for charlie
up comes charlie from the floor below
after straining heaving and complaining
we was getting nowhere
and so we had a cuppa tea and charlie had a think
and he thought we ought to take off all the handles
and the things wot held the candles
but it did no good well i never thought it would
all right said fred have to take the feet off
to get them feet off wouldn't take a mo
took its feet off even took the seat off
should have got us somewhere but no
so fred said let's have another cuppa tea
and we said right o
oh right said fred have to take the door off
need more space to shift the so and so
had bad twinges taking off the hinges
and it got us nowhere and so we had a cuppa tea and
right said fred have to take the wall down
that there wall is gonna have to go
took the wall down even with it all down
we was getting nowhere and so we had a cuppa tea
and charlie had a think and he said look fred
i get a sort of feeling if we remove the ceiling
with a rope or two we could drop the blighter through
all right said fred climbing up a ladder
with his crowbar gave a mighty blow was he in trouble
half a ton of rubble landed on the top of his dome
so charlie and me had another cuppa tea
and then we went home
i said to charlie we'll just have to leave it
standing on the landing that's all
you see the trouble with fred is he's too hasty
you'll never get nowhere if you're too hasty
