My first attempt at a topical ditty for the season....
=====================================================
(Sung to the tune of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen")
At two percent the interest rate
is lower than before
The Economy depends on you
to spend and spend some more
Alistair says it could get worse
He's really such a bore,
Stop whining and Christmas enjoy,
Christmas enjoy
Stop whining and Christmas enjoy.
Across the pond the car makers
are begging for some dough,
in private jets to Washington
the three of them did go
their cars are crap, they look like shit
their quality is low,
Stop whining and Christmas enjoy,
Christmas enjoy
Stop whining and Christmas enjoy.
Your house is worth about a half
compared to recent years
The cost of petrol, cigs and booze
have never been so dear,
but what the f**k, you get one life
so wipe away the tears,
Stop whining and Christmas enjoy,
Christmas enjoy,
Stop whining and Christmas enjoy.....
