One rule for them

One rule for them

We’re gonna party like it’s number ten in twenty-twenty-one

We play hard, but hard work is very rarely done

When the drink runs dry the party doesn’t have to stop

Cos we can take a suitcase to the local co-op

Cos it’s one rule for them, another for us

We don’t give a toss about maintaining public trust

One rule for us, another for them

It’s good enough for us if it’s good enough for our PM

We’re gonna party like it’s number ten in spring twenty-twenty

The public might be stuck at home but that doesn’t mean we should be

If the papers blow this up and call it partygate

We’ll just have to tell them we were ambushed with a cake

Cos it’s one rule for them, another for us

We don’t give a toss about maintaining public trust

One rule for us, another for them

It’s good enough for us if it’s good enough for our PM

After all, you get the politicans you vote for

And we knew what we were getting, we saw Boris on the telly

After all, you get the politicans you vote for

And we knew what we were getting, we saw Boris on the telly

Poor Boris – he didn’t know

That he was breaking his own rules

It was his stupid advisors

That made him out to be a fool

How could he know

That it was a party

Now he knows

He just keeps telling us he’s sorry

But that’s not even the argument

The point is that he misled parliament

Prime Minister Boris Johnson

Doesn’t have a conscience

And in the midst of all this drama

Where the hell is Kier Starmer

Broken down democracy

Flat out hypocrisy

I for one won’t go quietly

Into this post truth society

We’re gonna party like it’s number ten in twenty-twenty-one

Cos we shouldn’t let a crisis spoil our sense of fun

And to hell with the idea we should be socially distant

It’s not like we made the rules, not like the politicans

And meanwhile

With all this drama

Where the hell

Is Kier Starmer?

His excuse is number ten

Is a place for both work and play

He needn’t worry

He can rely on good old Sue Gray

Broken down democracy

No need for integrity

I for one won’t go quietly
