The stars at night - are big and bright
Deep in the heart of Texas.
The prairie sky - is wide and high
Deep in the heart of Texas.
The Sage in bloom - is like perfume
Deep in the heart of Texas.
Reminds me of - the one I love
Deep in the heart of Texas.
The cowboys cry - ki-yip-pie-yi
Deep in the heart of Texas.
The rabbits rush - around the brush
Deep in the heart of Texas.
The coyotes wail - along the trail
Deep in the heart of Texas.
The doggies bawl - and bawl and bawl
Deep in the heart of Texas.

Step in time, step in time
Come on, mateys, step in time
Step in time
Step in time, step in time
Step in time, step in time

Step in time, you step in time!

Kick your knees up!
Kick your knees up, step in time
Kick your knees up, step in time
Never need a reason,

Kick your knees up, step in time

Round the chimney!
Round the chimney, step in time
Round the chimney, step in time
Never need a reason,
Never need a rhyme
Round the chimney, step in time

When this guy writes the check to the mason who rebuilds his chimney, the furthest thing from his mind will be how much money he was going to save by not calling a locksmith....

"In trying to get the person out, you have to do a lot of manipulation of the brick and mortar, which can transmit a lot of injury to the person inside," said James Johns, a fire battalion chief.

If it's done right.

Time to write your Congressman, demand they pass the 2002 Chimney Safety Act. The chimney you save could be yours!

You think that's stupid? I went to an insurance agents' convention. One of the most successful agents locked himself out of his apartment. So on a sleety night he decided to enter by way of the roof. He fell to his death.

I would call a locksmith every time.

This guy was a real winner. After he was freed from the chimney he held his hand up with his index and pinkie fingers extended, and proudly proclaimed "fireman rock!!!". This guy looked like he came straight from a Metallica concert...

Chim chiminy, chim chiminy, chim chim cheree,
This bozo is stupid as stupid can be,
Chim chiminy chim chiminy chim chim cheroo,
His buttocks clenched tight as he's stuck in the flue,
The damper is closed and he's stuck in the fluuuuuuue...

I've heard if you start at the storm drain and hold your breath real good you can make it in through the toilet...
