\nNo-Boom-and-Bust Brown,who led us to drown
\nIn oceans of wastage and debt
\nWas misunderstood, he knows he did good
\nAnd hasn’t an ounce of regret<\/p>\n
He sold off our gold, so fusty and old
\nA bargain at rock bottom price
\nHe taxed every pension, but that he won’t mention
\nHe’s acted and never thought twice<\/p>\n
It isn’t his fault that we’ve nowt in the vault
\nAll he spent he had borrowed with care
\nIt’s the banks who’re to blame they were playing his game
\nBut to say so is nothing like fair<\/p>\n
All his new regulation avoids strangulation
\nAnd bankers made millions a week
\nThey all looked so happy that Gordon, nice chappy
\nThought he wouldn’t bother to speak<\/p>\n
The soldiers had buses so all of their fusses
\nAre terribly far out of line
\nA new helicopter that he “didn’t cop ta”
\nCannot be a cause to resign<\/p>\n
His MPs who diddle were not on the fiddle
\nEach one made an honest mistake
\nDon’t vote against cheaters the press are all bleaters
\nHard grafting MPs need a break<\/p>\n
And Brown’s not alone on his porcelain throne
\nThere’s Mandy on hand at his side
\nHe was one of the fools who thought nothing of rules
\nWhen asked for the truth he just lied<\/p>\n
And now he’s in charge of a budget so large
\nThat some of it must have a use
\nA child of the night who is sure that he’s right
\nAnd if not he will have an excuse<\/p>\n
Please don’t believe Tories, they’ll tell you such stories
\nOf how Gordon led us astray
\nBut all of it’s lying, you know he was trying
\nTo hide all the bad stuff away!<\/p>\n
All big business leaders are gullible bleeders
\nThey can’t understand about jobs
\nHe knows about taxes, and just what the facts is
\nDon’t listen to others, they’re knobs<\/p>\n
He’d like to say more, that we’re not on the floor
\nThat we all of us richer than ever
\nSo rush off and vote for his rickety boat
\nHe hopes that the voters aren’t clever<\/p>\n
No-Boom-and-Bust Brown,with the permanent frown
\nIs a man you can trust with your life
\nIt’s the Cons and the Libs who are all telling fibs
\nThe Country’s in no sort of strife!!!<\/p>\n
Author notes
\nGordon Brown was being interviewed on Today, answering no questions accepting
\nno blame or responsibility, being about as honest as you would expect …<\/p>\n
