[Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu]

Israel has decided to freeze,
American efforts to ease,
The horrors and fears,
That all we’ve all watched for years,
They’re holding the balls, so they squeeze.

Johnny Ronan has plans to bestow,
Some money on NAMA although,
He would prefer not,
To hand over his yacht,
No he said no he said no.

The headlines are all looking grave,
For Ruairi, who yesterday gave,
An unpopular speech,
To people who teach,
And also like to misbehave.

Some organised and disciplined,
Protestors will take on the wind,
They’ll march day and night,
And keep up the fight,
Till they get our whole atmosphere binned.

There’s little in life that compares,
To the strangeness of foreign affairs,
While Ukraine faces war,
Some people are more,
Concerned with the price of their shares.
