Fire On Coal

Mr. Fireman please
furnish my stove with some fuel
two logs on the trigger is sufficient start the fire
gentle strokes on the hearth side will stir and build more heat
yeah like that
gentle and slow...
feed the furnace with another log i need more blaze
better yet put that chimney in already
glide the toaster right side and center
hit my inglenook till am all flaming fire and flakes
And when your pipe cannot restrain the diesel no more
gas it on my bed of coal
let the explosion awaken Himeros and Aphrodite
And it shall be called Sir+Lady BARBECUE!!!!
