A POLLIE’S LOT IS SUCH A MONIED ONE

With apologies to Messrs Gilbert and Sullivan(I think the tune is obvious 🙂 )

A POLLIE’S LOT IS SUCH A MONIED ONE

When an MP’s not engaged in robust debate (robust debate)
Or maturing his felonious little plans (little plans)
His capacity for being a reprobate (a reprobate)
Is just as great as any priv’liged man’s (priv’liged man’s)

Their feelings they with difficulty smother (-culty smother)
When parliamentary duties to be done (to be done)
Ah, take one blatant corruption with another (with another)
A Pollie’s lot is such a monied one

AHHH,
When Parliamentary duties to be done, to be done
A Pollie’s lot is such a monied one.

When Ministers are out corrupting (out corrupting)
When the Cayman Island’s filling up with cash (up with cash)
They love to hear the little man bankrupting (man bankrupting)
And listen to the growing of their cache (of their cache)

When the taxman’s told him do not bother (do not bother)
He loves the blatant lies that he’s just spun  (he’s just spun)
Ah, take one consideration with another (with another)
A Pollie’s lot is such a monied one

AHHH
When Parliamentary duties to be done, to be done.
A Pollie’s lot is such a monied one. (monied one)
