In modern times that boast of reason's rule
Still vulnerable we are to elect a fool
I wakened to bad government, remote
After England's masses pledged a vote
Shrieks of a slogan of three measly words
"Get Brexit Done" did dupe the voting herds
Piteous brave Corbyn in decline
Tasteful, precious as an ancient wine
The fearful onslaught of Tory policy
Which sought to purge the masses by degree
Did find no opposition in crooked Starmer
Who represents another centrist drama
But for Desire of the left we battle, quest
As Tories lady liberty ******
Their tyranny doth inhabit rotten space
Alien to compassion of human race  
I dare not take a look at their cruel schemes
That crush and burn our heart's cry, its fledgling dreams
There's wealth enough in England to children feed
Yet Rashford have to fight establishment greed
His fight put warmth into my broken heart
Which lost all faith, the Tories ripped apart
Ignoble are our leaders, lack in morals
Who with the bonny rainbow take up quarrel
Rise up ye workers, thou hast been deceived
The left of Labour by treachery bereaved
