[00:00:00] The Biggest Aspidistra In The World - Gracie Fields

[00:00:07] For years we had an aspidistra in a flower pot

[00:00:13] On the what not near the atstand in the all

[00:00:18] It didn't seem to grow 'til one day our brother Joe

[00:00:22] Had a notion that he'd make it strong and tall

[00:00:27] So he's crossed it with an acorn from an oak tree

[00:00:31] And he's planted it against the garden wall

[00:00:37] It shot up like a rocket 'til it's nearly reached the sky

[00:00:41] It's the biggest aspidistra in the world

[00:00:46] We couldn't see the top of it it got so bloomin' high

[00:00:50] It's the biggest aspidistra in the world

[00:00:56] When father's had a snoot full at his pub

[00:00:59] The bunch of grapes

[00:01:01] He doesn't go all fighting mad and getting into scrapes

[00:01:05] No you'll find him in his bear skin playing tarzan of the apes

[00:01:10] Of the biggest aspidistra in the world

[00:01:16] The tom cats and their love to spend their evenings out

[00:01:21] Up the biggest aspidistra in the world

[00:01:26] They all begin meowing when the buds begin to sprout

[00:01:30] From the biggest aspidistra in the world

[00:01:35] The dogs all come around for miles a lovely sight to see

[00:01:40] They sniff around for hours and hours and wag their tails with glee

[00:01:45] So

[00:01:45] I've had to put a notice up to say it's not a tree

[00:01:49] It's the biggest aspidistra in the world

[00:01:55] Me brother's in the army

[00:01:58] He's in the home defence

[00:02:00] With the biggest aspidistra in the world

[00:02:05] The colonel says at topping

[00:02:07] Now we'll start the big advance

[00:02:09] With the biggest aspidistra in the world

[00:02:14] When goering sees it from afar 'e'll say to his old frau

[00:02:19] Young Joe as got his blood up war will soon be over now

[00:02:24] For they're going to string old 'itler from the very highest bough
