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
