We're reight daahn int' coal oil wheret' muck slaps ont' windaes,
We've used all aar coil up an' wi reight daahn tut cinders,
If bum bailiff calls he won't know where to find us,

Of course us Midlanders don't understand this foreign gibberish :-) so we have to sing


We are right down in the basement where the dust accumulates upon the casement
We have used up all our anthracite and simply left with the residue
When the landlord's representatives appear they will be unable to ascertain our whereabouts
For we are right down in the basement where the dust accumulates upon the casement
