The Time Warp
Leftness takes its toll
We’re astounded, voters fleeing
Leftness takes its toll
But listen closely, not for very much longer
I’ve got to produce thousands of tractors for the glorious revolution!
I remember doing the Time Warp
Drinking those moments when
The redness would hit me, electoral void would be calling
Let’s do the time warp again…
Let’s do the time warp again!
It’s just a jump to the left
And then a step to the left
With your hands on your hips
You bring your knees in tight
But it’s the binmen’s strike that really drives you insane,
Let’s do the Time Warp again!
It’s so dreamy, oh fantasy free me
So you can’t see me, no not at all
In another dimension, with socialistic intention
Well-deluded, I see all
With a Fabian mind flip
You’re there in the time slip
And nothing can ever be the same
Gramsci spaced out sensation, like you’re under sedation
Let’s do the Time Warp again!
Well I was walking down the street just a-having a think
When this union guy gave me an evil wink
He shook me up, he took me by surprise
He had a bloc vote and John Prescott’s pies.
He voted for me and I felt a change
Labour members meant nothing, never would again
Let’s do the Time Warp again!

Wonderful! – and the same goes for Brother Gildas earlier. September the 28th should go down as a vintage day in the Annals of the Raccoon.
(Or is it simply that after a long dearth of suitable subjects, the Milibands are at long last providing a rich source of inspiration?)
Oh – and thanks for the earworm!

Great!
As you say:
“But it’s the bin man’s str-i-i-ike
that really dri-i-i-ives you insane ….”
And the power cuts etc etc
Let it come. I have candles for a power cut, gas for cooking, spare diesel for the car, batteries for the computer and torch, and I take my own stuff to the tip anyway. Let the festivities begin!
Worst case scenario – locked in the wine cellar. Read a book. Live on cuppa soup.
No change there then! -

If I can find a backing track, I’ll record it for you…

If you weren’t all so positive I would find this depressing.
