On a day like today, after the working public have been trashed as militant money grasping scum by POLITICIANS ,( erm...pot, kettle,black?) I thought it appropriate to post on here the full lyrics of one of our most popular ditties.
Oh the Gravy Train is coming,but it's not for you and me
It won't stop at your station, unless you're an M.P.
Oh the Gravy Train is coming, hear it rumble down the track
It's loaded with our money which they say they're giving back.
If you're standing on that platform just wave as it goes by
At all those smiling faces subsidised by you and I
You cannot have a ticket and you do not get a ride
All seats reserved for the privileged just sitting there inside
Don't trespass on that railway line it isn't very safe
Unless you're flipping mortgages whilst acting in good faith
They claimed lots of expenses whilst "sticking to the rules"
And if they think we'll swallow that they must think we're bloody fools
The Gravy Train is coming, it's all weighted down with cash:
-Allowances and handouts for Opportunist Trash.
Ministers and politicians of every shade and hue,
Their second homes and Porno films paid for by me and you.
Oh the Gravy Train is coming! Can you hear the whistle blow?
They say there's an enquiry-but we'll never get to know.
They will hope we've all forgotten when next time to vote has come
And if you do not vote at all in come the Nazi scum.
We need a revolution, let's roll those tumbrils out,
They're the perfect resolution for a mud encrusted snout,
For those with a flat in Chelsea and a farm in Warwickshire
Who say they're living hand-to-mouth on a hundred grand a year.
( repeat First verse).
