So [A]right said [Am6]Fred [A]climbing up the [Am6]ladder [A]With his [Am6]crowbar [A]gave a mighty [E7]blow [A]Was he in [Am6]trouble, [A]half a ton of [Am6]rubble [A]landed on the [A7]top of his [D]dome So [Bm]Charlie and [E7]me had a[A]nother cuppa [F#m]tea And [Bm7]then we [E7]went [A]home
(Spoken)...I'll said to Charlie we'll just have to leave it standing on the landing, thats all. You see the trouble with fred is he's too hasty. Now you never get nowhere, if you're too hasty...
