Lyrics

Electric Fires

Ring your tongue out for drying

But the sky's crying

Everyone has gone inside

The sheep bleat and the cows sleep

Some bluebirds tweet-tweet

Behind the cloud the sun hides

Warm next to electric fires

Warm next to electric fires

Stella's old cat's getting wet

She's her favourite

Even favourite cats get wet

Cut a clever one in half

Watch two dumb hogs laugh

Two he-he's three ha-ha-ha's

Come warm your toes near the fire

The electric fire

The electric fire

The electric fire
