Smith & Taylor |
| Built with lives |
| Remembered in plans |
| A history of no ones |
| For the glory of just one man |
| Should Smith now fall |
| Then Taylor takes his place |
| We’re measuring our progress |
| By burying our waste |
| Pyramids, palaces |
| Railways and mills |
| Viaducts, offices |
| Pipelines and canals |
| Bells for the architect |
| Ringing through the land |
| A hundred honest men to wash |
| The ink stains from his hands |
| For the forging of words |
| Comes easy as sleep |
| Stones for Smith & Taylor |
| Their memories to keep |
| Every maiden voyage |
| Leaves a widow on the shore |
| And every blessed spire |
| Sees the earth get its reward |
