Brexit - We need no more of… end of!
We've had lies on a bus,
We've had things we can't trust,
We've had deals we can't sus,
And we've had an awful lot of parliamentary fuss.
​
We've had deadlines go by,
We've had borders to try,
We’ve had planes that can’t fly,
And we’ve had an awful lot of kissing the truth goodbye.
​
We’ve had Tories rebel,
We’ve had defections as well,
We’ve had places in hell,
And we’ve had an awful lot of deals we can’t possibly sell.
​
We’ve had passports of blue,
We’ve had news that’s untrue,
We’ve had satire that’s true,
And we’ve had an awful lot of things that are good for the few.
​
We’ve had businesses trashed,
We’ve had hopes raised and dashed,
We’ve had ferry deals crashed,
And we’ve had an awful lot of our MPs attacked and harassed.
​
We’ve had Plans marked as A,
We’ve had red lines not stay,
We’ve had assent on the day,
And we’ve had an awful lot of Brexit faff and delay.
​
We’ve had Scots saying no,
We’ve had talks going slow,
We’ve had leaks that do flow,
And we’ve had an awful lot of saying ‘I don’t know’.
​
We’ve had councillors binned,
We’ve had Ministers skinned,
We’ve had promises thinned,
And we’ve had an awful lot of kicking the items once tinned.
​
We’ve had Dover quite lost,
We’ve had plans that have cost,
We’ve had debates she hath quashed,
And we’ve had an awful lot of ‘should we go hard or go soft?’
​
We’ve had leopard skin shoes,
We’ve had red white and blues,
We’ve had nebulous views,
And we’ve had an awful lot of things to mislead and confuse.
​
We’ve had talks from the Queen,
We’ve had parties quite Green,
We’ve had trade deals not seen,
And we’ve had an awful lot of tosh - do yer know what I mean?
​
We need no more of this,
We need no more of that,
We need no more of… end of!
