Unfortunately been away from writing for few weeks doing other work, but today's news inspired me to try and write up this song. If anyone can make it funny, feel free to change it...ta
To the tune of SIT DOWN YOU'RE ROCKING THE BOAT from GUYS AND DOLLS
GODRON BROWN
I dreamed last night my whole party was re-bel-ling
And they said I had been PM far too long
And Hazel stood
And she hollered "Gordon save me"
But I didn't so she pinned her badge on….
I said Hazel please do sit down, sit down you're rockin' the boat
Hazel she did stand down
Stood down pinned the badge on her coat
MPs
And Gordon's face was like thunder
When he woke up and he read our note
"Stand down, stand down, stand down stand down"
Stand down, we're losing the vote.
BROWN
I got into, the Commons 'bout eleven
And I admit, I was pretty goddamn pissed
Off with MPs, the back-stabbing little bastards
Even Jacqui Smith had signed on the list
MPs
Oh, when we were run by Blair
We would not be jumping ship
Now we've gone and we don't care
If you try and send round the whip
And you must have made every blunder
Short of claiming porn, or cleaning out your moat
Stand down, stand down, stand down, stand down
Stand down you've become a joke
BROWN:
And as I laughed at Dave Cameron's offensive (LAUGHS MANIACALLY)
I turned around, but there wasn't no one there
They'd all gone home, to spend more time with family
'Cept for Jacqui who had left a porno on
MPs
And still he would not stand down
He's more stubborn than a goat
We shouted at him stand down, stand down we're losing the vote
And we showered him with emails
And we signed our names on a five pound note
Stand down, stand down, stand down, stand down,
Stand down we're losing the vote.

I dreamed last night I got on the boat to heaven
And by some chance I had brought my dice along
And there I stood
And I hollered "Someone fade me"
But the passengers, they knew right from wrong.
For the peopel all said sit down, sit down, you're rockin' the boat
People all said sit down
Sit down you're rockin' the boat.
And the devil will drag you under
By the sharp lapel of your checkered coat,
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down,
Sit down you're rockin' the boat.
I sailed away on that little boat to heaven
And by some chance found a bottle in my fist
And there I stood,Nicely passin' out the whisky
But the passengers were bound to resisist
For the people all said beware
You're on a heavenly trip
People all said beware
Beware, you'll scuttle the ship.
And the devil will drag you under
By the fancy tie 'round your wicked throat
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down
Sit down, you're rockin' the boat
And as I laughed at those passengers to heaven (laughs)
(gasps!) A great big wave came and washed me over board!
And as I sank And I hollered "someone save me!"
That's the moment I woke up Thank the lord
And I said to myself, sit down, sit down,
You're rockin' the boat!
Said to myself sit down, sit down, you're rockin' the boat
And the devil will drag you under With a soul so heavy you'd never float,
Sit down, sit down, sit down
Sit down, sit down, sit down, you're rockin' the boat
