Deep Pocket Parliamentary Shanty (A song for modern day pirates)
Away, haul away
We’ll haul to line our pockets
Away haul away
It’s what MPs do.
We vote for or own payrise
We’ll haul to line our pockets
At ten percent ago
It’s what MPs do.
With gold plated pensions
We’ll haul to line our pockets
On the backs of the voters
It’s what MPs do.
Away, haul away
We’ll haul to line our pockets
Away haul away
It’s what MPs do.
We’re arrogant and pompous
We’ll haul to line our pockets
We don’t care a damn
It’s what MPs do.
It’s always do as we say
We’ll haul to line our pockets
And never as we do
It’s what MPs do.
Away, haul away
We’ll haul to line our pockets
Away haul away
It’s what MPs do.
With fact finding missions
We’ll haul to line our pockets
We copy Air Miles Tony,
It’s what MPs do.
We’ll stay on the gravy train
We’ll haul to line our pockets
Unending expenses
It’s what MPs do.
Away, haul away
We’ll haul to line our pockets
Away haul away
It’s what MPs do

Hi Clarissa - thanks fo taking the time to read and comment, much appreciated.
I'm not a fan of politicians in general, but our current crop just seem so intent on getting, and keeping, their hands in my wallet.
Thieves, Rogues and Vagabonds all.
