I wish I had an ocean of rum and sugar a million pound.
The dear old Quad to mix it in.
The chimney to stir it round
I'd drink a toast to the cardinal

Good find on those old song lyrics!

The "chimney" mentioned in the lyrics was a 75-foot chimney next to the old power plant. It can be seen in the picture below. It collapsed in the 1906 earthquake, killing a man.
