[Verse 1]
Bm
One smoky day in a darkened scullery
D A
Down by the river in a factory town
Bm
Where bad things happen & the walls are drippn'
A Bm
And the ghosts are flittin' frae the cold hard ground
Bm
A pot & kettle on the hob were settled
D A
A' hissin' their patter so bileous cruel
Bm
An awfy matter o' clout & claterin'
D A Bm
Battlin' wits in a hideous duel
[Chorus]
Bm
Lids a rattlin' belchin' steam
D A
Life ain't nothin but a fevered dream
Bm
'You're a lowly villain'
'You're a terrible liar'
D A Bm
'But we're both here cookin' on the same old fire'
Bm
Guts a bubblin' belchin' steam
D A
Life ain't nothin but a fevered dream
Bm
'You're a chanty pot'
'And you're a shite for brains'
D A Bm
'But we're both here hangin' on the same old chains'
[Verse 2]
Bm
"I've roasted a wealth of exotic things
D A
All torn to ribbons at the hands of kings
Bm
Polished copper how I proudly shone
A Bm
Stealin the fire of the blazing sun"
Bm
"Ye've boilt nae mair'n 'em old soup bones
D A
I've boilt the tea for them stately homes
Bm
I were rattled like a drum each Hogmanay
D A Bm
Then scrubbed tae the devil on the follwin' day"

"O kettle yer metal is a terrible hue
D A
Riddled wi' holes cannae hold yer brew
Bm
Yer lids all crooked & yer sides bashed in
D A Bm
It'll not be long afore ye see the bin"

"Pot your not so bright as me
D A
A hags old cauldron is all you'd be
Bm
You reek o' gruel & you're none too young

Fit for to carry but the peels & dung"
