There was a young fella named Best
Who to all other teams was a pest
He played for Man U
And I er land too
And is enjoying a bloody good rest.

There was an MP called Balls
Who worked in Westminster's halls
He made it his mission
While in the opposition
To get hold of Cameron's smalls

Zacs-Master

There still is a singer called jagger
'Bout his music he's a bit if a bragger
But despite all the wrinkles
And plenty of crinkles
You cannot deny he has swagger

There is a singer called Cliff
Comes across a little bit stiff
But when rain did stop play
He put on a impromptu display
Now there's not much left of his quiff

There once was a feller called Dave
Who with school friends was quite one to rave
But now he's PM
"I really hate them
Who'd drive me, to an early grave."

An ex-public schoolboy called Osborne
At his new job was totally forlorn
To boost his rich cronies
He took all the monies
From the sick, the poor, and low-born

There once was a pedant called platus
Who's words were comparable to flatus
So with lots of hot air
And many words to spare
His lack of humour deflates us

There were four lads from thePool
played music and acted the fool
only two left now
nowt to do but count money

Zacs-Master

Sorry ill try that again

There once was a pedant called Plautus
Who's words of wisdom he taught us
But they all were hot air
And made us despair
He would turn us all into tortaus (tortoise)

Wellllll, you try finding something to rhyme with Plautus.

Two ladies called Jem and Star
Told jokes that were best by far
They make people laugh
Including the staff
The Ed said what joke tellers you are
