Oh dear Mr . Johnson I guess it came at last Despite the bullish bluster , you can ’ t escape your past I thought we ’ d be together for a few more years to come But Sky News got it right when they said your race was run
Although your time at Number 10 has ended in a quick exit You did make lots of headlines and you did deliver Brexit I think of you quite often now when queuing for a plane And I am a little jealous of the speedy Euro lane
It really is quite tricky when reflecting on your time Many people love you , but just as many think of crime You guided us through Covid and you got us jabbed and boosted But you couldn ’ t help yourself sometimes , those hens came back and roosted
Your support for our Ukrainian friends will always be supported But your wall-paper and porky pies just made your truth distorted Party gate was bad enough , and then some parties more Gatherings with wine and cheese , behind that famous door
As your booze was guzzled , just ten mourners for my Dad No hymns to sing , no-wake to laugh , it makes me bloody mad For that I can ’ t forgive you , I suspect I never will For me and many families , it ’ s quite the bitter pill
And yet with our friend Rishi , you furloughed and you fought You saved a lot of businesses , we praised you for that thought At times in the pandemic , your strength gave much light Churchillian in lots of ways , an optimist so bright
So you see you are a quandary , neither black nor white Some bold touches of brilliance , some shocking oversight And now you ’ ve gone and left us with a fight amongst your troops All your former generals now promising tax loops
Tightening our borders , pushing back on woke Easing cost of living , making Russia choke These are all the promises , no sitting on the fences And as for you our Boris , well enjoy those warm back benches
