" Chyandour Cliff "







What'd you do if someone
Built a bloody great block of flats
Next door to your little cottage,
Have you ever thought of that?

What'd you do in the winter time
When you want a little fire?
You've just gotta go up on your roof
And build your chimney higher!

You don't want the fire smokin'
'Cos that'll just make you cough!
I bet when that bugger's drawin' well
It'd suck your socks right off!

To be recited in the vernacular of Cornwall. This is the only two storey cottage I've ever seen with a five storey chimney. I wonder who pays the chimney sweep?
