When your Government's right out to sea
And leaks to a damping degree -
Then, left high and dry
By a faithful ally
Is not such a bad thing to be.

Our Gideon's most efficacious
When up before Leveson: gracious!
He'll get right to work,
And charm them with smirk,
And sit there, serene and sebaceous.

Even the toffs from the Bullingdon Club
Have been known to scoff with the plebs at the pub
But when you’ve had a few jars
You must count your kids in the cars
Before you rush home after your grub

With a whimper that sounds like a bray
All that's left is the glue
Or a Paris menu:
"Colt au vin is the special today"

In Chengdu's development zone
Is a plant which has steadily grown
The staff took to their feet
In the line for some meat
Man lives not by Apples alone
