[C] [G] [C]
Uncle Tom's watch used to [F] shine [C] in the dark,
But he gave her a wee tea out over the [G] wire.
[C] Don't need her now, [F] boys, Uncle [C] Tom said,
[G] Since the new daylight savings time scheme was [C] brought in.
Who taught it up, boys, [F] God [C] love his heart,
His wonderful seeing's our summer's so [G] sharp,
[C] With ways as much sunshine [F] through, Lord, [C] this is all.
I [G] allow we up as black as the coal,
[G] Double your pleasure, [C] double your fun,
[F] For half of [C] the year [G] we'll have double [C] the sun.
The man down at UI [F] was scratching [C] his head,
He had some funny letters here lately, [G] he said,
[C] Like if I helped double [F]
[C] daylight points, dear,
Do you think that me five weeks could pass off for ten?
Me grandfather's just [F] about ninety years [C] old,
He can't seem to get what is happening, [G] you know.
[C] All his life he's been up at [F] the crack [C] in the dawn,
[G] Now dawn and don't crack till the day's [C] almost gone.
A frisky young feller [F] who lives [C] up the bay,
He now walls his lobster pots twice [G] every day,
And [C] got plenty of time when [F] he's fishing [C] in through,
To [G] burn up some pork chops on his gas barbecue.
[G] Double your pleasure, [C] double your fun,
For [F] half of the year [G] we'll have double [C] the sun.
Now some says it's bad, [F] while others says [C] good,
Savings on kerosene, shopping [G] on wood,
[C] And mothers who can't get [F] their [C] youngsters to bed,
[G] Can't sleep cause they got too much light in [C] their head.
But supposing we live where [F] the sun [C] never sets,
Where half of the year the lamps never [G] lit,
[C] So make like the Eskimos [F] living up north,
[G] Pull down your blind and your igloo [C] go dark.
[G] Double your pleasure, [C] double your fun,
[F] For half of [C] the year [G] we'll have double [C] the sun.
[F] With double the [C] daylight, [G] we'll double [C] the fun.
