There was a young cyclist called Lance,
Seven times he won the Tour de France,
He claimed he was clean, and vented his spleen,
But took enhancing drugs given half a chance.

After Sandy left terrible scenes
New York City still shovels and cleans
Will the town be the same?
Does it need a new name?
A catchy one like New Yorleans

You proles have no reason to whine -
Rush off to your food-bank and dine!
It's time to let rip:
We're off double-dip,
And back to our good old flatline!

Let prisoners vote? This must fail.
We must keep them outside the pale.
Tax-dodgers and hackers,
Of course, are my backers,
But only the plebs go to jail.

Alpine clothes are in style once again
Since they flatter in town and in glen
Showing shoulders so high
And a strong, hairy thigh
And we're not yet describing the men
