lyrics

Sacked... (1988) for fabricating a news story
Sacked... (2004) for publicly lying about an affair
Got away with exaggerated euro myths
Like Bruno Dethomas lives in a castle
A German plot against a British commissioner
Delors plans to rule Europe
They're blowing up Berlaymont
He had a journalist beaten up
He got a leg up from Merton and Hislop
Got away with wasting public money
On garden bridges and Jennifer Arcuri

Obscene porker
Lords it over us
With cronyism and corruption
It is one rule for Us
None for Them
It's not just the Johnson
They're all Fabricants!

Lazy, bring-your-own-boozer
Bullshitter
King of the world
Of extempore excrement
Where's Shakespeare: The Riddle of Genius?
Hope it is worth those five Cobra meetings...

Obscene porker
Lords it over us
With cronyism and corruption
It is one rule for Us
None for Them
It's not just the Johnson
They're all Fabricants!

265 FOR sewage in seas and rivers 15
359 FOR criminalising protest 15
250 FOR protecting Owen Paterson 15
Send in the Praetorian Guard 8
It's operation SAVE BIG DOG! 8
With... Desmond ‘the landlord’ Swayne
Andrew ‘flags!’ Rosindell
Priti ‘EVIL’ Patel
Gavin ‘Algorithm’ Williamson
Nadine ‘nepotism’ Dorries
Jonathan ‘braying bore’ Gullis
Michael ‘anti-expertise’ Gove
Sir Desmond ‘blackface’ Swayne
Jacob ‘capital's toff’ Rees-Mogg
Dominic RAAAAAAB

Obscene porker
Lords it over us
With cronyism and corruption
It is one rule for us
None for Them
It's not just the Johnson
They're all Fabricants!

'But I have come, reluctantly, to the conclusion that Boris cannot provide the leadership or build the team for the task ahead.'
- Michael Gove, 2016
