Yeah, in Holland noone says airconditioning, but instead the much shorter 'airco'. I actually thought that was common practice in UK/US as well, but maybe it is stricly a dutch-thing.

Reading this put pictures in my mind like those of the trip Paul (Guitar Noise's webmaster) took to northwest China (which you can find an article about here: Tales From the Ili Valley)

Even though you don't do a lot of physical description, your characters bring life to things, much as they did in the circus song. You do have a gift for that!

Stupid question: Is "airco" short for "air conditioning?"

Love the third verse!

Thanks for including the chords ( although I hate doing Bm's :-/ ) , what sort of rhythm does it have so I can get more of a feel for the song.
I can only feel a rhythm in the chorus but not the verses or bridge

Go well

The horses are nervous
the pails out of service
The wife won't stop yelling
The horse milk ain't selling

There's no use denying
mother earth's frying
and spells quite a crisis
on horse farming business


chorus:      
So I'll purchase that airco
     install it tomorrow
     though I hate the trip to Ulaanbaatar

     If cold breezes won't blow
     on Mongolian meadows            
     Technology will save me and my farm  

v2:
You know I would swear
that good old ozon layer
went to pieces
right over my property
     
The wife won't stop yelling
at times she's repelling
some fresh air will
do good to her and me

     So I'll purchase that airco
     install it tomorrow
     though I hate the trip to Ulaanbaatar

     If cold breezes won't blow
     on Mongolian meadows            
     Technology will save me and my farm

v3:
The phone rings, my mother
Well, boy don't you bother ?
your marriage and sour milk
go down the drain

My father takes over
his voice starts to lower
how things used to prosper
under his reign


     So I'll purchase that airco
     install it tomorrow
     though I hate the trip to Ulaanbaatar

     If cold breezes won't blow
     on Mongolian meadows            
     Technology will save me and my farm


bridge:            
Screw, twist, nail, mount
           push button, no sound
           dismantle, inspect, error, trial
           R-T-F-M as usual      

v4:
The sun won't retreat
so I have to move forward
she continues to beat
while I work in the horse yard

A T-Bone is smelling
but the wife won't be yelling
before I succeed to
make the airco blo-o-o-ow

O blow please airco blo-o-o-w
hm hm, hm hm

(repeat and fade out)
