The Incredible String Band - Smoke shovelling song

^DLast winter blew so cold no l^Aies, And my f^Dire smoke w^Eould not r^Aise ^DSoon as the smoke had tr^Gied to de^Dpart, It'd be ^Gfroze up harder than a l^Aandlord's he^Dart.

^DI called up the police, yes and they came ro^Aund, Thr^Dee days later and v^Eery brought d^Aown. The s^Dergeant he gave this hyst^Gerical cr^Doak, Says, "W^Ghat do you think you have going here, so^Ame kind of a jo^Dke?" (Of course I wasn't laughing)

^DHe says, "You're causing us officers so much gr^Aief, Wh^Dy don't you give us so^Eme reli^Aef? ^DWhy don't you call the f^Gire brig^Dade? Or may^Gbe why don't you try shovelling the smoke up the ch^Aimney with a sp^Dade."

^DI borrowed a spade from the woman next do^Aor And ^DI broke up the smoke that rema^Eined on the fl^Aoor. ^GI was shovelling away, till the cl^Dosing of day and I was si^Gnging a sm^Aoke-shovelling s^Dong

^DAfter working so hard I went out to my ya^Ard And ^DI looked up to my ch^Eimney so lo^Ang, (there was nothing to see there). ^GJust a thousand foot high, w^Day into the sky Was a pi^Gllar of ^Asmoke full of s^Dong.

There was an ae^Groplane s^Atuck in it, but I d^Didn't notice at first It was so cu^Gnningly disg^Auised as a dr^Dagon.

^DCame the summer at last, though it was rainy and fast ^A The pi^Dllar it me^Elted aw^Aay ^GThe aeroplane fell with a big smoky sm^Dell ^GAnd echoing around all o^Dver the town, Were the w^Gords of the sm^Aoke shovelling s^Dong.

And a^Gnyone telling a bigger story would have to be telling a l^Die, And a^Gnyone thinking a bigger one up, ha^Ave to be very h^Digh.
