Tormented electorate : time to take revenge,
tomorrow’s the day we can finally avenge
many years of wrong-doing and being ignored.
What’s at stake ? Dracula can be fatally gored,
slowly to sink to his knees, keel over at last,
his time of vampire-like blood-sucking now passed.
Dismiss dour thoughts, our lives are about to un-bend,
carry on with life, Count’s power is at an end.
He’ll be defeated, by the power of the count
as we the people with new courage will surmount
thirteen years of – bad luck ? – no, deliberate aim,
while we, with a true stake in our great home won’t claim
“moral compass”, his myopic vision of truth,
but an eye for an eye AND a tooth for a tooth !

He’s led a disasterous Party
With Milly and Mandy and Ed,
We’ll all raise a cheer
When he’s out on his ear
As we choose any colour but red.
Gill Duffy (that loveable granny)
Had voted just Labour for years,
But dared say “immigration” and “eddyoocation”,
Dared say she said she was taxed into ann-i-hilation,
And all Gordy did was to voice indignation
He deserves to land right on his fanny.

(sort of based on ‘I went to a marvellous party’ by Noel Coward)

bugger, I’ve made a real pig’s ear of one line. Drat.

‘Dared say she was taxed into ann-i-hilation,’

is how it should read.

Ignore me.

“…. tomorrow’s the day we can finally avenge many years of wrong-doing and being ignored.”

And the day after that, Brown, who has lied, bullied and cheated his way to the top will steal the Premiership in a de-facto Coup d’État aided by the Cleggies.

Thursday, millions of us will leave our homes armed with nothing more than a biro and aspirations for a better tomorrow. Maybe we should be taking guns?

Over the weekend, I fear we’ll all witness the true nature of a selfish Labour Party, led by a demon determined to hang on to power no matter the cost.

This isn’t an election (Brown doesn’t do those) its the old Three Cup Shuffle, Shell Game or Thimble Rig.

Think I’m wrong?

We’re all be Greek-ing at the knees Friday and by Saturday we’re be putting up more smoke than Eyjafjallajökull.

(To the tune of robin hood)
Gordon Brown Vote Him Down
He’ll fuck you again
Gordon Brown he’s a clown
So are all his men
Gives jobs to the rich
Steals from the poor
Made grannies frown
Destroyed the pound
He’s Gordon Brown the total cunt who has ruined 60 million peoples lives with the help of his numpty policies and fuckwit MPs who were to busy fiddling their expenses to be bothered to help the people they were elected to serve. Now his corrupt labour thieves are trying to fraudulently cling to power with illegal postal votes. These fake socialist bastards do not understand how close they are to a hanged parliament.

My first song and I am struggling to get the last line to rhyme. But as the dark princesses lord mandy fondlebottom says substance over style.
