Prompt ~THE CANDY CABINET
THE CANDY CABINET
by John Yeo
I promise porridge oats for breakfast every single day
If in the coming elections you cast your vote for me.
My cabinet will make you wealthy after we break away.
~
We’ll be better off going it alone in every possible way
Vote to break the chains and everyone will feel free,
I promise porridge oats for breakfast every single day.
~
My chancellor will relax the annual tax we have to pay
There will be riches for all by my government’s decree,
My cabinet will make you wealthy after we break away.
~
Whisky with mIlk and honey will wash over the highway
Mixed with tax-free champagne and imported chablis
I promise porridge oats for breakfast every single day.
~
Lochs and glens will be rich with my candy-cabinet in play
Vote for me to lead you, I’ll be your independence key
My cabinet will make you wealthy after we break away.
~
Vote for my cabinet to enrich us all in every possible way,
Our candy-cotton independence will start immediately,
I promise porridge oats for breakfast every single day.
My cabinet will make you wealthy after we break away.
