we’ll have political reform along current german lines Employment schemes based on the 33 design We’ll get ye back to work don’t worry here’s the man Theres no need for you to fear if yev a corporate plan We‘ve a surplus labour force ripe and unemployed half a million on the scratcher ready to exploit Theyre destitute and caught up in a state of desperation spiralling debts married to social disintegration They’ll only be delighted for someone to invest keep there wages low enough to pay the interest they’ll be stuck in the vortex ye know what they say Keep em hungry they’ll keep comin we’ll be laughin all the way To the toxic banks if yer falling through the cracks Homeless living on the streets I’ll introduce a poll tax Fines for the beggars there’ll be a hefty fee We’ll tax the air you breathe cause Nothing is for free So vote for me mick the B.I.Z we’re the party people the peoples party Its time for a change you know I’m worth it Working for me Cause you deserve it My Foreign policy is to clear this land Of excess baggage wasters and the outstretched hand Through varied public service cuts vat will be increased Income tax hikes minimum wage decreased I’ll initiate policies of self perpetuation A programme of socially enforced emigration A long term solution in the short term will hopefully get results what I call the cullen bill Education is the key and we’ll run the slide rule We cant afford to fall between a rock and two stools A smart economy of under educated fools you’ve seen what hedge funds can do now try our hedge schools When it comes to the arts I’ll be frank its only right artists must tow the line for the arsehole is tight Health care forget the 2 tier industry My proposals add another tier to bring it up to 3 1 free for all holders of public office 2 insurance to avoid emptying the coffers 3. This will get us out of this rut Band aid vouchers for the dole to heal our health cuts So vote for me mick the B.I.Z we’re the party people the peoples party Its time for a change you know I’m worth it Working for me Cause you deserve it So vote for me mick the B.I.Z we’re the party people the peoples party Its time for a change you know I’m worth it Working for me Cause you deserve it fine fail will continue to meet its obligations in regards to the case of anglo-german bank statements We ‘ll continue the repayments even though its their debts consistent with our program on foreign investment I’ll be tough when it comes to crime and punishment If you break the law I’ll double your penitence That’ll halve the incidents take it as a sign If you cant do the crime its cause your doing time We’ll sell our last resources off for a small slice a short term solution at a knock down price And if you cant see the wood for the trees, might as well be invisible, lets make it a reality Saving the Environment - selling our green soul 26 countees turned into 26 holes Give our European partners cheap golfing vacations as they continue to benefit from enslaving the nation So vote for me mick the B.I.Z we’re the party people the peoples party Its time for a change you know I’m worth it Working for me Cause you deserve it So vote for me mick the B.I.Z we’re the party people the peoples party Its time for a change you know I’m worth it Working for me Cause you deserve it
