Now Angela wants to know why,
The Americans think they can spy,
On whomever they choose,
But Angela’s news,
Is from now on some rules will apply.

There once was a fellow from Coon,
A bit of a World War 2 loon,
Who decided to bake,
A Hitlerite cake,
And now he looks quite the buffoon.

We’re now putting kids into care,
If we don’t think the shade of their hair,
Matches their mom or dad,
Some folk say this is bad,
But it strikes me as perfectly fair.

The genes from some long extinct beast,
Have been found on a hill to the east,
The papers don’t care,
That it’s merely a bear,
So news of the Yeti’s released.

The chaps up on Capitol Hill,
Have worked out a debt-ceiling bill,
Though the right did their best,
When put to the test,
They couldn’t move in for the kill.

I was worried, it’s fair to admit,
About just how this budget would hit,
The things I hold dear,
They put ten cent on beer!
That’s bad, but I don’t think I’ll quit.

Les was told he’d have to treat,
Himself to a spare airline seat,
Now this would be great,
If Les could bilocate,
A sadly impossible feat.

Some people are furious that,
Someone on Love/Hate shot a cat,
Even though it’s not real,
These idiots feel,
It will lead to feline tit-for-tat.

Old Gerry decided to mention,
The heightened sectarian tension,
Against all the odds,
He’s blaming the prods,
It’s a problem with just one dimension.

Young Miley’s been getting some letters,
From Sinéad, who is one of her betters,
O’Connor asserts,
That instead of short skirts,
She should put on some trousers and sweaters.
