The House of Lords

Bored of deplored Hordes of frauds On abhorred company boards Who applaud flawed Seats stored…for cheats Apply or buy on the fly Enjoy till they die Getting podgy..betting on dodgy bills Thrills of blue pills Moolah the ruler Swills..fills the tills Cash revenues poured Toured here & Did maraud abroad All avenues explored Scored a stash Claps & back slaps Promises will slash Countries floored collapse Nice one chaps Ice caps thawed Adored share price soared Lust for boom & bust Must lobby..trust us Just a hobby jobby Cigars smoked…booze soaked Full to the gunnels With coke choked Vasal nasal funnels Despite our fears and nadirs For years on the fiddle Peers sneers & jeers Snaking beast will feast Diddle..taking the piddle Not least the riddle Forgot forsaking the priest Not reeling…Lords’ laughter Cheers to Keir again Feeling calmer after Starmer’s dafter karma Who’s forgotten it’s rotten Even show pony Tony Did more to stop Crony phoney baloney Our hopes on the ropes Need a disdain campaign Tropes to end Champagne reign of gain This inane arcane Insane gravy train
