daibhidc | A Song for Europe

Parliament was sat one night,
With rebels on the left and right,
The sky was dark, the hour was late,
And still the Commons did debate.

The arguments went round and round,
There was no sign of common ground.
The MPs all shook their heads,
As Theresa stood up and said:

Let's do it,
Let's do it,
It's time that we made Britain great.
We've been sent,
Fifty percent,
Of an unimpeachable mandate.
We're thrifty,
We're nifty,
Now's the time to activate Article 50.
Let's do it,
Let's do it tonight!

But they said:

We can't do it,
We can't do it,
We never really had a plan.
A fixation,
On immigration,
That all started with your racist van.
It's unreal,
That no deal,
Means you'll do without and turn on your kitten heel.
We can't do it,
We can't do it tonight.

So she said:

Let's do it,
Let's do it,
Although I spoke up to remain.
Now we're through,
With the EU,
Ignore what I said in the campaign.
Let Boris,
Quote Horace,
We'll be selling jam in England as we dance the morris.
Let's do it,
Let's do it tonight!

But they said:

We can't do it,
We can't do it,
The whole situation's a mess.
Don't fuss,
But a bus,
Promised millions for the NHS.
It's untrue,
It'll fall through,
We've decided the word "let's" never meant we were going to.
We can't do it,
We can't do it tonight.

So she said:

Let's do it,
Let's do it,
We need to follow voters' trends.
They're barraged,
By Farrage,
And the rest of his loony ex-friends.
No slipping,
No dripping,
UKIP if you want to but I'm not for kipping.
Lets do it,
Let's do it tonight!

But they said:

We can't do it,
We can't do it,
Although we don't like to object.
David Davis,
Looks grave, he's,
Got a list of things he hasn't checked.
Where we're stood,
Is no good,
Don't even start about how they'll react in Holyrood.
We can't do it,
We can't do it tonight.

Then they said:

Let's do it,
Let's do it,
It's not as thought we have a choice.
Our plea,
For sovereignty,
Ironically left Parliament no voice.
Your debriefing,
Is we're believing,
Our only hope is to leave without actually leaving.
Let's do it,
Let's do it toniiiiight.
