The UK EU Referendum Campaign

If you feel sick
At what you have seen
From politicians
During the UK 2016
EU referendum campaign

Imagine how it would be
If we had none of them
For 589 days
Say we’ll give them that long

To mend their ways
To think of us instead of themselves
And their tax avoiding business friends
Who live only for power and wealth  

But you may say
No Government for 589 days!!
it’ll be anarchy!!
Everything will fall!!

They’ll be chaos on the streets!!
No I don’t want that at all!!
I’d rather participate in a system
That doesn’t serve us all

I would ask you
To think of a place
Not too far away
Which managed quite ok
Even though no one was running the place

People still went to work
No danger to the public purse
Streets were still cleaned
Nothing was actually any worse

Belgium is its name
And the people spoke
Irrespective of political views  
Their message was clear
You Politicians are a joke!

And ask yourself
Why it was
That even though Belgium is so near
Why we didn’t hear
What was happening there?

So if you are distressed
At what you have seen  
From what is supposed
To be our country’s best

Let’s consider launching our own
Project Fear
Aimed at those politicians who don’t
Take on board our words which
Pass through their ears

Let them live in fear
For their Jobs
Their friends
And their excessive
Expenses pay days

And let us be without a government
For 589 days....
