Today in parliament
|
You' got the honourable this
|
And the honourable that
|
Nothin' so eloquent
|
As a little bit of mis-
|
Understanding and a lot of chat
|
Something you wanna say?
|
Don't address it to me
|
You gotta see your MP
|
He's gonna take up your case today
|
Do civilised people always act this way?
|
|
Today in parliament
|
You' got shoutin' down the front
|
And shoutin' at the back
|
Come on gentlemen, settle down at the front
|
Sit down at the back
|
Something you wanna say?
|
Address it to the House in the usual way
|
I know you want to have some fun
|
But civilised people ought to get things done.
|
|
Blame Jesus for all the trouble in the world today
|
Blame anybody you like
|
But don't blame the government of the day.
|
|
Today in parliament
|
You get rhetoric elective, a little bit of cynicism
|
Nothing heaven sent
|
Just a mere hint of socialism, lotta conservatism
|
' Nothing I wanna say
|
Let's make a lot of changes and keep it this way
|
' No where else I wanna go
|
I'm enjoying myself, I run this radio show.
|
|
Neil Kinnock sums it up right
|
'You have to break eggs to make an omelette-ah!
|
But you don't have to drop the eggs on the floor.'
