Another night when I stood up to speak
Though slightly pissed on Budvar and Theakstons
And now it’s Thursday night, another week
Of Question Time, and thank God the questions
Are questioning the Aghan war, where sons
And daughters are dying to protect what?
What is it that they’re blown up for by bombs
Planted at the roadside where they are not
Welcome, and where their blood will never clot
Ask Blair, ask Bush, ask God; don’t ask the weak
The poor, uneducated, trusting ones
Putting necks on the front line. Now I’ve got
To stop, because Germany really seek
To knock Portugal out. This isn’t fun.
