Leo’s Manifesto

Leo's Manifesto!

A little song to the air of Eric Bogle’s “Little Gomez” which is based on Gilbert and Sullivan.

His little manifesto is a marvel to behold They're all his own ideas that he's pushing, O! Though I have seen them elsewhere, if the naked truth be told, Benito Mussolini wrote the same shit years ago, He was chewing cud with Dobo on the RTE main news, Listing all the low life that he's hoping to abuse, So if you don't rise early, then your dole he will refuse You'll be back in 1930, with the Blue Shirts O! Yes! Back in 1930, with the Blue Shirts O!

And Yes! He'll ban your bandana He'll ban your bandana today! He'll have road checks, for dole cheques, and scroungers by the score, A visit from the heavy gang who'll break down your hall door! And Yes! He'll ban your bandana! He'll ban your bandana today!

I have often heard it said, that a dear leader must be strong Like Caesar, Genghis Khan, or Mussolini O! But Leo takes the cupcake when it comes to being wrong And I told him where his little five point plan might go; That his right wing economics wouldn’t get him past the post, If he tried to ban the strikers, his career would be toast! And the Bilderberg agenda is the one we hate the most, But he didn’t take the hint and so he'll have to go! Yes he couldn't take the hint and so he'll have to go!

No jest, it's Leo Varadkar He's after your Union today! If it's SIPTU or MANDATE or even NBU You'd better watch your backs, 'cause you’re the ones he wants to screw! O Yes! I'm Leo Varadkar! I'm after your Union today!
