For those hoping for a new saw for Christmas, this Carol is for you. Sung to the Happy Wanderer.
The Miserable Scroller
(With Apologies to Friedrich Wilhelm)
My scroll saw goes a wandering
As I cut eight quarter oak
And it cuts, I scream and shout
THIS SCROLL SAW IS A JOKE
Chorus:
Piece of crap, hunk of junk
Piece of crap
Hunk of junk that should be in a trunk.
Piece of crap, hunk of junk
THIS SCROLL SAW IS A JOKE
My scroll saw wanders through most any wood
That I could ever use.
The cut is rough not any good
I think I blew a fuse
<Chorus>
My scroll saw goes a wandering
But it just won’t go and die
Until is does I’m stuck with it.
Something better I cannot buy.
<Chorus>
I placed saw my behind the car
And backed up with great speed.
The saw’s not any worse for wear.
But repair my car will need.
<Chourus>
At the tool shop I go a wandering
Finding a saw my wife could buy.
But until it breaks I’m out of luck
This year another tie.
<Chorus>
