This is now our only hope
Too much sly duplicity
Those ballot boxing stunts
Sweeping up and pressing flesh
But the truth no one confronts
Expecting all to take it in
The party line of bland repeats
One by one they dish it out
Like bags of sickly sweets
Boring toothless sound bites
Finger crossing guarantees
Where on future ‘past reminders’
They somersault off their trapeze
They say democracy has had its day
Though it died some years ago
When all the money disappeared
Now just a Fools-Gold’s glitter show
Who knows if it’s gone for good
Too many voters dump their votes
As a consequence all common sense
Lies drowned in sunken boats
