Plague Songs - Rewrites / by Rich Hobbs

I

Rue, Britannia!
Britannia, rue that knaves
Have for cent-u-aries 
Kept us slaves!

Rue, Britannia,
You’ll always kid yourself
That Pat-riot-ism
Will trump wealth!

II



Land of Hopeless Tories, smothered by the Sleaze,
Whose history is gory and riddled with disease,
Wilder yet & wilder howl the Tory Press,
Regilding the dung heap of this fucking mess,
Regilding the dung heap of this fucking mess!
