Poetry Friday 40

Poetry Friday number 40
For audio click here.

Just one Poem this week and in fact it is more of a song and it owes a lot to Sir William of Bragg.
Please click here for the original song.
It also needs a lot of polishing but it’s been a long week.

David Cameron had an idea
referendum made it sure
and now it seems like the UK
won’t be part of this union anymore

so which side are you on boys
which side on you on
which side are you on boys
which side on you on

May triggered article fifty,
and they say there’s no turning back
but if EU suffers it will hurt us more
when we go our own way, and sod you Jacques

so which side are you on girls
which side on you on
which side are you on girls
which side on you on

We went off to join demonstrations
we said we don’t agree with this shit
but Daily Mail called us remoaners
and said you lost, get over it

so which side are you on boys
which side on you on
which side are you on boys
which side on you on

oh it’s hard to explain to a Spaniard
why she’s not welcome here any more
and why the Czechs, the Poles, the Portuguese
are suddenly being shown the door

so which side are you on girls
which side on you on
which side are you on girls
which side on you on

But I’m bound to follow my conscience
and we’ll keep up the fight  
standing up for the 48 and
trying to defeat the fascist right  

so which side are you on girls
which side on you on
which side are you on boys

which side on you on. 

Hope my terrible singing didn't put you off.
