| Today in parliament |
| You' got the honourable this |
| And the honourable that |
| Nothin' so eloquent |
| As a little bit of mis- |
| Understanding and a lot of chat |
| Something you wanna say? |
| Don’t address it to me |
| You gotta see your MP |
| He’s gonna take up your case today |
| Do civilised people always act this way? |
| Today in parliament |
| You' got shoutin' down the front |
| And shoutin' at the back |
| Come on gentlemen, settle down at the front |
| Sit down at the back |
| Something you wanna say? |
| Address it to the House in the usual way |
| I know you want to have some fun |
| But civilised people ought to get things done. |
| Blame Jesus for all the trouble in the world today |
| Blame anybody you like |
| But don’t blame the government of the day. |
| Today in parliament |
| You get rhetoric elective, a little bit of cynicism |
| Nothing heaven sent |
| Just a mere hint of socialism, lotta conservatism |
| ' Nothing I wanna say |
| Let’s make a lot of changes and keep it this way |
| ' No where else I wanna go |
| I’m enjoying myself, I run this radio show. |
| Neil Kinnock sums it up right |
| 'You have to break eggs to make an omelette-ah! |
| But you don’t have to drop the eggs on the floor.' |
