POPPA <br>

Diesel is for unbelievers. Electricity is wrong. <br>

Steam has got the power that will pull us along - <br>

There's a light at the end of the tunnel <br>

There's a light at the end of the tunnel <br>

The inside might be as black as the night <br>

ALL <br>

But there's a light at the end of the tunnel <br>

There's a light at the end of the tunnel <br>

The inside might be as black as the night <br>

But at the end of the tunnel there's a light. <br>

POPPA <br>

It's the power of James Watt, the steaming Scot <br>

ALL <br>

The man sho watched the pot and said "Hey, I've got <br>

A brilliant plot: when the steam is hot <br>

It seems to make a lot of power" <br>

POPPA <br>

It could turn a wheel ... <br>

ALL <br>

Lots of power ... <br>

POPPA <br>

It could drive it down a track ... <br>

ALL <br>

Clickety clack, clinkety clack... <br>

POPPA <br>

It could drive it with a beat ... <br>

ALL <br>

Choo-choo-choo... <br>

With enough left over for a <br>

Whoo-whoo! <br>

He saw the light at the end of the tunnel <br>

I said he saw the light at the end of the tunnel <br>

POPPA <br>

Thanks James Watt (thank you Mr Watt) <br>

For watching the pot <br>

ALL <br>

He saw a light at the end of the tunnel <br>

He saw a light at the end of the tunnel <br>

The inside might be s black as the mnight <br>

But at the end of the tunnel there's a light. <br>

POPPA <br>

There are dark days ahead <br>

When the power goes dead. <br>

When the oil runs dry <br>

What can we try? <br>

ALL <br>

We could use the sunlight <br>

POPPA <br>

Bit it don't shine at night. <br>

ALL <br>

Nuclear fission <br>

Leaves a nasty emission. <br>

POPPA <br>

Soon the pistons will be humming <br>

Steam will have a second coming - <br>

ALL <br>

We saw light at the end of the tunnel <br>

We saw light at the end of the tunnel <br>

Just dig a hole and haul out the coal <br>

We saw light at the end of the tunnel <br>

We saw light at the end of the tunnel <br>

So let the water boil - goodbye to oil <br>

At the end of the tunnel there's a light. <br>

We saw light at the end of the tunnel (we see the light) <br>

We saw light at the end of the tunnel (we see the light) <br>

When the Angel Gabriel blows his magic toot <br>

We saw light at the end of the tunnel (we see the light) <br>

We saw light at the end of the tunnel (we see the light)<br>

<br>
