The time has come or so they say
To hold an election any day
And I don’t mind which party wins
As long as its the party that I am in
So vote for me, you know you must
I’m a politician that you can trust
I’ll look after my constituency
But most of all I’ll look after me
I’m the one to look after the nation
I believe in training & job creation
And grants for firms that trade abroad
As long as I’m asked to join the board
Don’t listen to the News of the World
It’s wasn’t me with that Swedish girl
My private life it’s so squeaky clean
I’m into bin liners and tangerines
I’ll debate the case for English farmers
On Channel Four and Panorama
And tell them foot & mouth ain’t funny
As long as I’m paid appearance money
And I won’t mind the strains and stresses
That I’ll undergo in the those long recesses
And I’ll offer to go to France and Spain
‘Cause I’ll travel first class in the Gravy Train
Yes I’ll be standing and I’m so able
My politics are transferable
And if my party’s outlook’s poor
I’m quite prepared to cross the floor
