Victorian Inventions

Twas the age of queen Victoria
A period notorious
So many brand new goods we did create

Our list is long and glorious
Though I don't intend to borious
Was a time of great invention

Was it really? What did we invent then?

Well I'm just about to mention
Drum roll please lets raise the tension
We invented this, music hall

Is that all?

Well
A chap called Henry Bessemer invented molten steel
Which led to other chaps creating the automobile
Which let to petrol, tires and bikes so all that was required
Was roads so concrete came and tarmac thought up to

Your hired

Ooooh, concrete, tarmac, steel
The automobile
Seal of rubber wheel
Such inventive zeal

Still there's plenty to reveal

Victorian brains worked over time to come up with ideas.

We invented lights bulbs

Nice one
Cheers

Type writers and radios, now news was fast conveyed
Hello?
A telephone was no good till a second phone was made
Hello

Our inventors did not snooze
Always had another rouse
The latest flushing loo
Films that did amuse
Flashbulb cameras to use

What a picture! What a picture

Vacuum cleaners, toilet paper, postboxes and stamps
Toilets, aspirin, anesthetics, locks, electric lamps
Sewing machines, X-rays, comics, ice cream in a pot
Easter eggs and rockets, we invented the whole lot

Hang on there's more

Trains and lines and bridges and the underground as well
Paddle steamers prams and disinfectant for their smell
Sterile doctors instruments, one last unmentioned brand
Victorians invented the worlds first conveyor band

Cuddly toy?
Invented 1902
The year after Victoria died

Oooohhh, barometers were new
Iron ships a coo
What genius
Thank you
Seems we're almost through

Just one little oversight
We invented dynamite
