flanders swann - the gasman cometh كلمات أغنية

’twas on a monday morning
the gas-man came to call;
the gas tap wouldn’t turn – i wasn’t getting gas at all.
he tore out all the skirting boards
to try and find the main,
and i had to call a carpenter to put them back again.
oh, it all makes work for the working man to do!

’twas on a tuesday morning
the carpenter came round;
he hammered and he chiselled and he said: ‘look what i’ve found!
your joists are full of dry-rot
but i’ll put it all to rights.’
then he nailed right through a cable and out went all the lights.
oh, it all makes work for the working man to do!

’twas on a wednesday morning
the electrician came;
he called me ‘mr sanderson’ (which isn’t quite my name).
he couldn’t reach the fuse box
without standing on the bin
and his foot went through a window – so i called a glazier in.
oh, it all makes work for the working man to do!

twas on a thursday morning
the glazier came along,
with his blow-torch and his putty and his merry glazier’s song;
he put another pane in –
it took no time at all –
but i had to get a painter in to come and paint the wall.
oh, it all makes work for the working man to do!

’twas on a friday morning
the painter made a start;
with undercoats and overcoats he painted every part,
every nook and every cranny,
but i found when he was gone
he’d painted over the gas tap and i couldn’t turn it on!
oh, it all makes work for the working man to do!

on sat-rday and sunday they do no work at all:
so ’twas on a monday morning that the gas-man came to call!
