G C7 G D
one each end and steady as we go
G C7 G C7
tried to shift it couldn't even lift it
G C7 G G7
we was getting nowhere and

C A7 D
so we had a cuppa tea and
G C
Charlie had a think and he thought we ought to
G7 C
take off all the handles and the
A7 D
things wot held the candles
A7 D7
but it did no good well I never thought it would

G C7 G C7
Allright said Fred have to take the feet off
G C7 G D
to get them feet off wouldn't take a mo
G C7 G C7
took its feet off even took the seat off
G C7 G G7 E7
should have got us somewhere but no
Am D7 G D Em
so Fred said let's have another cuppa tea
C Am7 D7 G
and we said "right-ho !"

"Right," said Fred, "Have to take the door off
Need more space to shift the so-and-so."
Had bad twinges taking off the hinges
And it got us nowhere
And so we had a cuppa tea and

"Right," said Fred, " Have to take the wall down,
That there wall is gonna have to go."
Took the wall down, even with it all down
We was getting nowhere
And so we had a cuppa tea.

And Charlie had a think, and he said, "Look, Fred,
I get a sort of feelin'
If we remove the ceilin'
With a rope or two we could drop the blighter through."

"All right," said Fred, climbing up a ladder
With his crowbar gave a mighty blow.
Was he in trouble, half a ton of rubble landed on the top of his dome.
So Charlie and me had another cuppa tea
And then we went home.

I said to Charlie, "We'll just have to leave it
Standing on the landing, that's all
Trouble with Fred is, he's too hasty
Never get nowhere if you're too hasty."
