Crimbo in Scroogeland

Crimbo in Scroogeland


I

sale of humbug get it while it's fact
free to air on every issue top
terms for sporting butts of jokes well licked
spittle on tap

who'll be next to have their bell ends kicked
sparring partners sought by legal chaps
bloody Corbynism's gone & died
hallelujah

rounded up the readership last week
let ‘em go in Epping forest rode
horse & hounds till Sunday lunch & what
fun we all had

not that Corbyns everywhere don't have
preaching rights to dismal creeds a-hem
sacred texts for England’s donchya know
open for biz

sell us what you got the market tells
good from bad with trickle down on toast
make a bee-line Honey Russian gold
buys any thing
II

let’s define what Corbyn meant at worst
honest peaceful good ideas hope
courage youth & wisdom arm-in-arm
all the above

flaunted openly as if as if
rightly trounced for who can tell the truth
nowadays it’s only fools believe
what a man says

lies have trumped were only fiction trod
onward into battle close the ranks
stop the tide of reason in its tracks
haul up the pumps

hands on deck you fools this ark will float
Jonah’s whale I'd rather go to hell
in a barrel roll the ocean flat
out till no bells

now hear this if anyone of you
was a Corbynista make it plain
or forever hold your tongues dismiss
I'll be below


III

curses where did Corbyn keep his charts
rum no luck the vessel's dry or smoke
coke would be a blessing take a line
Miss Whatsyourname

I remember Winston Churchill well
not at all in fact his finest hours
underground spent plotting Hitler's doom
just like this room

sorry cabin where was I oh yes
seems we’re in a right old bloody mess
thanks to Corbyn's failure fingers go
drumming on desk

switch the channel Moby bloody Dick's
hardly Christmas viewing when's The Speech
time to be decisive take a stand
business is biz

Ma'am forgive me what I uttered then
wasn’t quite exactly on the nail
coffins float I hope so overboard
here's what to say

not Crook-shank
