Pardon us
Worlds apart

We didn't have
Your interests at heart

This isn't an apology
From the right or the left

This is simply a eulogy
Of democracy's best

We missed the oh cue
Scratched on the eight

Surely we should have seen
The flip side of fate

Yet to regain control
Can be so submitting

But on the greener side of the grass
   We hope to be *******...
