The Day after the Existential Vote – 16 January 2019

Or the ballad of a conflicted MP
(Loosely attributed to Desmond Decker)

“Get up in the morning” – searching for reasons.
Oh my party and my constituents.
Looking to me for answers – Oh Referendum.

“Get up in the morning” – searching for salvation
Oh my party and my constituents.
Looking through me – Oh Referendum.

“Get up in the morning” – awaiting retribution.
Oh my party and my constituents.
Looking down on me – Oh Referendum.

“Get up in the morning” – seeking sanctuary.
Oh my party and my constituents.
Looking everywhere for me – Oh Referendum.

“Get up in the morning” – looking for freedom.
Oh my party and my constituents.
Staring at the Situations Vacant – Oh Referendum.

“Get up the morning” – looking for tranquillity.
Left my party and my constituents.
Living in harmony – Thank you Referendum Aah.
