E D Tosspint rises early, sprung from nightmare's claw Thrice crows the dawn cock, A the mist is on the moor E Tosspint cries from croaking gills, D thank God I'm not forsaken A From the hellish depths of sleep, D at last I am awakened Tosspint flushed his kidneys, rained a golden shower Pleased to piss a good potful, he shat upon the hour Tosspint filled his belly with tripes and ox's tongue A sucking pig stuffed with figs, into his guts he flung Chorus: D Full belly and the dance is merry E Where hunger reigns no strength obtains D The wheel spins, the gurdy hums A Ring the bells and beat the drum Tosspint drinks lustily and pees against the sun All around the hoary oak, the laughing maidens run Tosspint warms his codpiece, to the flour adds the yeast In the field by Tanner's Mill, he plays the two-backed beast Chorus: Twist the spigot, close the hole Stoke the fire and blow the coal The wheel spins, the gurdy hums Ring the bells and beat the drum Full belly and the dance is merry Where hunger reigns no strength obtains The wheel spins, the gurdy hums Ring the bells and beat the drum Tosspint fell foul of dogma and slipped into a schism The trial was quick, the sky grew dark, they led him from the prison Tied him to a stake of oak, lit a fire of wood and coke The crowd sang, his bacon's smoked, the bells rang out, Tosspint's croaked Tosspint, under flaming sky, walks through the fires of Hell Where bestial demons threw the damned screaming as they fell Into pits of burning coals, Tosspint throws up his last bowl Mingled with the soup, his soul Tosspint rises early, sprung from a nightmare's claw Thrice crows the dawn cock, the mist is on the moor Chorus: Twist the spigot, close the hole Stoke the fire and blow the coal The wheel spins, the gurdy hums Ring the bells and beat the drum | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA  D  E  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
