Micks Manifesto

from Banana Republican by Captain Moonlight

/

lyrics

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
