DEFEND IT TO THE DEATH

 

Liberals believe in freedom of speech

They support it on pain of death

And they will defend this principle

With their final dying breath

 

It’s the corner stone of liberalism

It’s the doctrine that they teach

However, it most definitely helps

If you sing from their hymn sheet

BEAT THE DRUM TO THE LIBERALS TUNE

 

The liberal minded

Like a parade

They like to march

They like to engage

 

Beat the drum

To end the war

They’ll tell you

That’s what freedoms for

 

Ban the bomb

Free Tibet

No more Trident

End third world debt

 

March in the city

For gay pride

And every liberal

Is on your side

 

If you’re so inclined

Join the throng

March in unison

And sing the liberal song

 

But bang the drum

And blow the horn

For patriotism

And feel their scorn

LIBERALLY HUMEROUS?

 

Don’t you just love them?

If only for their belief in equality

Or a love of all things PC

And an unswerving moral certainty

It’s a shame that to become a liberal

A sense of humour bypass is necessary

LIBERALS

 

Don’t you just love the liberal crew

So called because of their liberal views

But when you examine their reasoning

Their liberality is merely posturing

Charles Kennedy was deposed of course

Because he was too fond of the sauce

Jeremy Thorpe had to go way back when

Because of his fondness for young men

While Menzies Campbell was told

He had to go because he was just too old

The party so proud of their liberal principals

Are in reality not that liberal at all

FAREWELL CHARLES

 

Well, they finally got rid of Kennedy

Who likes to drink quite liberally

I’m not sure that it’s fair or right

He didn’t start drinking over night

They knew what they were getting

A man familiar with whistle wetting

What seems to me to be Nonsense

From the party with a conscience

For a liberal party not withstanding

Isn’t the least bit understanding

I wonder now about the motivation

Hounding him out before the nation

It wasn’t his reputation as a Binger

He had to go because he was Ginger

TAKING OFFENCE

People are so easily offended today
This is quite ironic really
As due to political correctness
We are censored so heavily
And with all the sanitising
There is so little opportunity
But those who do take offence
Fall into three distinct categories

Firstly, the genuinely offended
Those who feel the detriment,
Whose opinion is seldom heard
Unless it’s politically expedient

Second, the white middle class heterosexuals
Who like to be offended on others behalf
And are particularly suspicious
At anything that gets a laugh

Thirdly, come the professionals
Those who get offended for a living
They frequent the morning TV sofas
And are relentlessly unforgiving

The professionals feel no offence
But find their roles financially fulfilling
They will take umbrage for anyone
Just to earn another shilling

Even worse however is anticipated offence
Those who want to act just in case
Some unspeakable offence may be caused
If things are unchanged or left in place

The original intention may well have been
That a better society was planned
But what they have managed to do instead
Is to make the world more bland
