Smoggy through the glow,

On Jones' steam powered sleigh,

O'er the stars we go,

Ooorah'ing all the way.

Bolts on shell searing,

Flashing burning light,

What fun it is to cough and read

A steaming punk tonight.

Oh, grinding cogs, bouncing springs,

Through verse all the way;

Oh, how punk it is to slide

In Jones' steam powered sleigh...

Oh, grinding cogs, bouncing springs,

Through verse all the way;

Oh, how punk it is to slide

In Jones' steam powered sleigh...

A click or two ago,

I thought I'd take a slide,

And soon Miss Kris the sly

Was seated by my side;

The sleigh all clinked and clanked,

H'ver around is not,

We got into a bright white bang,

And then Smith got me shot.

Oh, grinding cogs, bouncing springs,

Through verse all the way;

Oh, how punk it is to slide

In Jones' steam powered sleigh...

Oh, grinding cogs, bouncing springs,

Through verse all the way;

Oh, how punk it is to slide

In Jones' steam powered sleigh...

This rhyme has been initially published in TevunKrus#36 - A Very Merry SteamPunk Christmas. 

You would have recognised the classic Christmas-y song, Jingle Bells. But, have you recognised the underlying theme on this Sci-Fi version? For those who are still wondering, this Grinding Cogs rhyme is all about the gang of the Smith And Jones Adventures in the Genre-y verse. You can find them, Smith, Jones, Kris and the others, on the profile page Ooorah in their own book and on a detour of a page in one of the TK releases...
