Bonngggg
Preside!
Hear, hear, hear!
Might I remind you...
Say it...
Order!
Might I remind you...
(Heigh ho!)
No!
Ooorderrrr!!!

Noises on the radio
Megaphones on cars
Sermons from the Street of Shame
Know-it-alls in bars
Posters in suburbia
Experts on t.v.
Don't let them disturb-i-ya
They're just the powers that be

Heigh ho!
Don't worry
Nobody can win
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
No matter who you vote for, the government always gets in!

Heigh ho!

riiiiinnng!!! (yaaaawn)
Oh, great, great slumbering nation   cock-a-doodle-doo!
Awake!  Set yourself free!
Oh, smell the comforting bacon
Taste the bromide tea
sluuuuurrrrp aahhh!
An' give a little chirrup as I ladle on the syrup
Promises are cheap
Let me bear your crosses
Make me Boss of Bosses
Then you go back to sleep! ha ha ha...

Heigh ho!
Don't worry
Pop your cross in the bin
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
No matter who matter who you vote for, the Government always gets in!

Heigh ho!
Heigh ho!
Heigh ho!
Heigh ho!

Men have dreams of a finer place
Incorruptible Shangri-la
Women too have their Shangri-Las
Shangri-La la la!

See them in the public eye
Oozing oily charm
Hear them all personify
Down on Animal Farm oink oink moooo!!
Dog eat dog, not cock and bull
Isms are the game
Ism this and ism that
Ism it a shame?

Heigh ho!
Don't worry
Nobody can win
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
No matter who you vote for, the Government always gets in
gobble gobble gobble

Heigh ho!
Don't worry
Pop your cross in the bin
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
No matter who you vote for, the Government always gets in
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
Don't worry
You know you can't win
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
No matter who you vote for, the Government always gets in
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
(Heigh ho!)
Pop your cross in the bin
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
(Heigh ho!)
The Government always gets in
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
(Heigh ho!)
Pop your cross in the bin
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
