Tae a Mouse

Tae A Mouse (Whit wid Robert Burns say!) Ha’ where ye gon ye cowrin feartie Your impudence protects you sairly I canna say but ye strut yer stuff And quite honestly we’ve had enough Where ye gon ye cowrin farce Back tae Brussels to kiss their A...se Yer fair oh face an hair untinted Half mass trousers and they say yer minted That chain aroon the neck you wear It’s heavy, speaks volumes A’ truly swear. The vision o’ you tied tae the mast Is something we should hae done in the past. Pow’r up the engines on the private jet Scramble the forces we’ve tae get oot oh debt. Or so she says without a glance 29th March we’ve tae take a chance. No Deal there say the yins in the know. Didnae matter if you said Yes or No! Politics at perties a definate question tae bring amongst us a bit o digestion. But take O’leary the King o cheap flight No managing ony sleep at night. His massive fleet there stuck on the ground Doon beside our trusted pound. Now haud you there while Ive got your attendance Remember we tried for Independence? Nae faith back then because we were told BP’s stopped drillin - We’ve nae black gold The barrels a’ empty the drillin a’ stopped Increases in Asda, the penny has dropped! O wad some Power the giftie gie us To see oursels as ithers see us! It wad frae mony a blinder free us, An’ foolish notion: What airs in dress an’ gait wad Free us, An’ ev’n a Devolution Written by Jinty 13.01.2019
