The shit carters creak up our road
Completely propped up with their foul load
They had a hole in the cart back then
And carted the waste like a friend
I've often cried just where I've sat
Flat as a shit carter's hat
There's nothing in life as flat as that
They tried to have some dignity
Picking up what we'd had for tea
I sometimes saw the tins capsize
I felt sorry for the sewerage guys
I've often cried just where I've sat
Flat as a shit carter's hat
There's nothing in life as flat as that
