They re Moving Fathers Lyrics

song lyrics They re Moving Father s Grave To Build A Sewer lyrics They re moving father s grave to build a sewer They re moving it regardless of expense. They re moving his remains to lay down nine-inch drains To irrigate some rich bloke s residence. Now what s the use of having a religion? If when you re dead you cannot get some peace Cause some society chap wants a pipeline to his tank And moves you from your place of rest and peace... Now father in his life was not a quitter And I m sure that he ll not 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 bleedin consternation, And won t those city toffs begin to rave! But it s no more than they deserve, cause they had the bleedin nerve To muck about a British workman s grave. Note: A classic epic of the class struggle song lyrics
