Sam Cam

Sam Cam what did you do? Baked cakes on the telly Made the tea (once) At election time Tell us your husband was great Made sure you wore designer clothes On every date Fronted up a business so Your husband could tell us the Economy had not laid waste You never spoke (bit like ‘Princess Kate’) Never cared About those who are struggling In so many ways We never saw you helping the poor Petitioning your husbands or his Insidious globalisation friends To help keep the wolves from our door And as for those tax haves....no Think what you could have done for this country Also supposed to be yours With your unrestricted access To the world of the important And all that pillow talk.... But maybe we never got to see What use you could really be If only your dear husband had been caught With his pants down Maybe a prossie, a rent boy Or one of your own When you would have been Right at the fore Convincing us that your husband was A wonderful man Ready, willing and capable To lead the country once more But there you were On DC’s last day Designer dress Head on one side Eyes sad Looking concerned Sam Cam If that’s all you’re good for Let me say I’m glad that both you and your husband Have been sent on their way Because if that’s all you can do As a British woman You’ve failed!
