Too Many Cookers (From 'More Out Of The Hat', 1957) - Michael Flanders/Donald Swann

When we had an old fashioned kitchen

Cooking was a slow but easy going job

A place to talk a place to sit and stich in

While we kept half an eye on the kettle on the hob

Cooks went the way of the dinosaur

We struggled on alone

Then science provided the answer

Freed the british housewife

Gave her a life of her own

A kitchen on the modern plan may be a fancy looker

But we've jumped out of the frying

Pan into the pressure cooker

We have every sort of gadget now for every sort of chore

But it's much more work

And worry than it ever was before

There are cables on the tables

With plugs of every shape

And what we save on elbow grease

We spend on insulating tape

The fridge is quite prodigious at refridgerating grub

But every forty minutes it goes

Bub bub bub bub bub bub bub

We're confused by all the fuses

The oven changes gear

It's never a cook

You really need a consulting engineer

There's a pinger on the ringer

We can't hear each other speak

That thing on the shelf's been whipping itself

For the best part of a week

The pilot light is winking

We can't locate the switch

We've every sort of gadget

But we don't know which is which

With our new pneumatic icer

Self actuator dicer

The ideal for cooking ricer

And hard boiled duck egg slicer

With the universal grater

And a patent dessicator

The vibrating dehydrator

And a plastic percolator

The electric coffee grinder

The serrated bacon rinder

The expungable reminder

And the vermicelli winder

Oh we've every sort of gadget

And it's rather hard to think

We still can't open sardine cans

And we still stop up the sink

We don't want a labour saving kitchen

We much prefer the one we had before

Why did science have to pitch

In to our nice old fashioned kitchen

Please don't save us labour any more
