Well, can you keep the boys quiet
for a moment Mr Smith

Yes I know they want to raise the roof
It sinking like a horse's hoof

Yes I know the rain is coming in
But the boilers are fightin back

Yes I know the steam is coming through
Our computer controls they hacked

I know the organ pipes have gone
I'd hoped we perservere

There is enough wind in these lads
To put the world in fear

I know they are all in their shorts
To keep the heat down

Just keep the treadmill going
Up and down and round and round

I just wanted
On the eve of term

To manage just one speech
Without my fears confirmed

But so I must and with these words
Welcome you to go

But please bring back the bricks this time
My supplies

Are running low

Can I have a brick back

And not through the window

As per the last time

I am working on an exchange philos'put the words in yourself - they will never know' philo't lot

I always wanted, just a building that stood for a lot - (jolly joke) one of these rebuilding things would be nice

Sense however keeps creeping in, usually with water
