Euro Hocus Pocus

Is it the left wing in?

The right wing out?

Or is the Euro hocus pocus

The other way about?

In? Out? In? Out?

What’s it all about

Does anybody really know

I really have my doubts!

We’ll do the Euro hocus pocus

And we’ll turn around

And vote either in or out.

And if we vote ‘in’

All that voted out

Will only point their fingers

And they’ll scream and shout,

You got it all wrong

Now we’re up the spout;

We really wanted out.

But if we vote ‘out’

All the voters for ‘in’

Will be just as loudly vocal

As we all fall out.

It’s the Euro hocus pocus

As we posture and pout

We can’t win in or out!

I enjoyed this very apt EU vote "take" on an old song.
The conclusions are probably uncomfortably close to
the truth when it comes to a bit of finger-pointing.
