The Pot And The Kettle
The Rumjacks
Bm
(início)
Bm One smoky day in a darkened scullery D A Down by the river in a factory town Bm Where bad things happen & the walls are drippn' A Bm And the ghosts are flittin' frae the cold hard ground Bm A pot & kettle on the hob were settled D A A' hissin' their patter so bileous cruel Bm An awfy matter o' clout & claterin' D A Bm Battlin' wits in a hideous duel
Chorus
Bm Lids a rattlin' belchin' steam D A Life ain't nothin but a fevered dream Bm 'You're a lowly villain' 'You're a terrible liar' D A Bm 'But we're both here cookin' on the same old fire' Bm Guts a bubblin' belchin' steam D A Life ain't nothin but a fevered dream Bm 'You're a chanty pot' 'And you're a shite for brains' D A Bm 'But we're both here hangin' on the same old chains'
Verse 2
Bm "I've roasted a wealth of exotic things D A All torn to ribbons at the hands of kings Bm Polished copper how I proudly shone A Bm Stealin the fire of the blazing sun" Bm "Ye've boilt nae mair'n 'em old soup bones D A I've boilt the tea for them stately homes Bm I were rattled like a drum each Hogmanay D A Bm Then scrubbed tae the devil on the follwin' day"
Chorus
Bm Lids a rattlin' belchin' steam D A Life ain't nothin but a fevered dream Bm 'You're a lowly villain' 'You're a terrible liar' D A Bm 'But we're both here cookin' on the same old fire' Bm Guts a bubblin' belchin' steam D A Life ain't nothin but a fevered dream Bm 'You're a chanty pot' 'And you're a shite for brains' D A Bm 'But we're both here hangin' on the same old chains'

Verse 3
Bm "O kettle yer metal is a terrible hue D A Riddled wi' holes cannae hold yer brew Bm Yer lids all crooked & yer sides bashed in D A Bm It'll not be long afore ye see the bin" Bm "Pot your not so bright as me D A A hags old cauldron is all you'd be Bm You reek o' gruel & you're none too young D A Bm Fit for to carry but the peels & dung"
