Oh How Then

Oh How Then The powers that be took us into this mess And we as people decided to act Yes that’s right we banged our pans and spoons Screeching ENOUGH IS ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! You there over there yes you in Europe With your plans and rules and laws and languages We are English and do not want your rules Or to be ruled by you from citadel Europe What will we gain from this? Having to use Metric instead of Imperial Pity the market traders now in jail For refusing to bow down to Metric In a clink with druggies and gangsters and murderers But the Euro MPs should be inside For maiming our lives with their red tape From fishing quotas to banana size They say jump and we ask how high? So we did jump and jumped out of Europe! Some wanted to Remain but I voted Leave Yet what a mess it created oh dear May’s leadership is tatty just like her And her job is hard even damned But there is No Deal with the chaos it brings Brings to us in England and you in Europe What will it really bring? A sense of leaving but then what? Increased air fares, a need for Visas and new wars??? Time will tell...
