When I get taller thanks to the lifts Stuck inside my shoes I can look down on Emmanuel Macron And pretend I'm hard to Gavin Williamson I feel enormous like Richard Osman Standing at my door A giant as it goes, standing on tiptoes When I'm five foot four

Oh the benefits of Mr. Kite Will be removed and out of sight by Saturday The Hendersons will also be Subjected to an all out freeze in the same way Only fools and horses could believe That they could possibly get a reprieve In his way Mr. S. will damage the poor! The celebrated Mr. S Performs his feats upon the steps of No.10 The Hendersons will show regret As Mr. Kite falls through the net of safety Messrs. K. and H. assure the public Their reduction will be second to none And of course Rishi performs the austerity waltz! The poor will try not to be sick When Mr. K. loses benefits without a sound And Mr. H. will demonstrate Ten somersaults he'll undertake for the NHS Having been some days in preparation A splendid time is guaranteed for all And tonight Mr. Kite is footing the bill

Non-Dom Man 01:58
He's a real nom dom man Sitting in cloud cuckoo land Making all his nom dom plans for nobody Has a selfish point of view Knows just where he's going to He is not a bit like you and me Nomdom man don't listen He knows what you're missing Nomdom man, the world is at his command He's as rich as he can be Just sees what he wants to see Nomdom man, can you see me at all He's a real nom dom man Sitting in cloud cuckoo land Making all his nom dom plans for nobody Nomdom man don't worry Take your time, don't hurry When you leave it all Somebody else will hold your hand Ah, la, la, la, la He's a real nom dom man Sitting in cloud cuckoo land Making all his nom dom plans for nobody

Remember when I said we'd save 5p on petrol But we didn't cos the price had rocketed And I pretended I was filling up my car It was a Kia On the corner was a banker in a motorcar And his little children laughed at me behind my back As I tried to pay with my bank card through a window pane Very strange Five Penny Lane, I'm not insane Just filthy rich I just don't know how ordinary people live How do they cope with it? Five Penny Lane, I'm not insane Just filthy rich I just don't know how ordinary people live Five penny lane

The best things in life are free But not when you trash the economy A waste of money, (That's what I am) That's what I am (That's what I am) That's what I am That's what I am Running the country gives me such a thrill I'd love to help but I can't pay your bills Now give me money, (That's what I want) That's what I want (That's what I want) That's what I want That's what I want Money don't get everything, it's true But I don't care cos I got you Now give me money, (That's what I want) That's what I want That's what I want That's what I want

I'm bungling bills Run for the hills Bungling bills I'm bungling bills Run for the hills Bungling bills He heard the Autumn Statement from his chancellor Hunt He thought it was exciting, really magnificent But we all know that Jeremy is such a fucking cunt What a cunt I'm bungling bills And popping pills Bungling bills I'm bungling bills Winter is coming And winter kills

Here I stand, cap in hand Pleading to you all Pay more tax and don't relax Don't do it, not at all Everywhere people stare Each and everyday I can see them laugh at me But to them I say Hey, you've got to hide your cash away Hey, you've got to hide your cash away

The long and winding queue To the food bank going past my door Do you think it is something I'm responsible for? It reminds me of Oliver When he asked for more With begging bowl in hand In the long winding queue I've left them standing there A long, long time you know Why don't they get a job And stop being poor Many times I've looked at them And wonder if they've tried To seek employment and for enjoyment Just got on their bikes And still they lead me back To the long winding queue They are still standing there What's a tory to do? I'll just leave them waiting there I can't give them more
