| 作词 : Kennedy, Kennedy | |
| They're moving father's grave to build a sewer | |
| They're moving him regardless of expense | |
| They've dug up his remains to lay down nine-inch drains | |
| To irrigate some posh bloke's residence. | |
| Now, what's the use of having a religion | |
| If when you're dead, your troubles never cease | |
| 'Cause some society chap wants a pipeline to his... john | |
| And moves you from your place of rest and peace | |
| Now, in his lifetime, father never was a quitter | |
| And I'm sure that he won't be a quitter now | |
| And in his winding sheet, he will haunt that privy seat | |
| And only let them go when he'll allow | |
| Now won't there be some bloomin' consternation | |
| And won't those city toffs begin to rave | |
| But it's no more than they deserve, for havin' the bleedin' nerve | |
| To muck about with a British workman's grave |
