To be sung in the style of Procol Harum

Disliked the referendum,
Turned cartwheels on the floor♠,
It is all a bit revolting,
Still stuck firm in Europe’s maw♠♠

With opposition mounting,
As supporters fall away,
When they call out for another vote,
How I believe in yesterday

So it will be, two years later,
When, at last, we should have gone,
That the customs unions talks, will
Still be going on and on……

I said there is no reason.
For the truth is plain to see,
As we cross an AI border,
For the UK to agree,

One of Article 50’s hiccups,
That we simply had to cure,
In spite of my assurances
No one was really sure,

And so it will be, much, much later,
When history tells the tale,
That those devilish Europeans,
Had all set us up to fail,

And so it will be, much much later,
When history tells it tale,
That those devilish Europeans,
Had all set us up to fail….
