Parody song about British Blairites


This satiric music video from Britain is about the right-wing Blairite MPs in the British Labour party.

The lyrics are:

Plp – “Marxists”

16 September 2016

Marxists, Trotskyists, entryists
Raised on a diet of lefty bullshit
Oh, you might not encounter
May not have even heard of them
But there are millions of them, trust me

Marxists, Trotskyists, entryists
They swell our membership but we can’t risk it
‘Cause they just want to kick us out
Our centrist values they will flout
They’re just a bunch of louts, I tell you

Brothers, sisters, can’t you see
That Labour under Jeremy
Faces electoral defeat
They think that they’ve got us beat
But they’re no match for the true elite
Ahaha

We’re staging a coup, we’re staging it now
We’re leaving the shadow cabinet
Just refuse to cooperate, yeah
We want your votes, we want your love
We want the things we feel are owed us
We won’t use morals, we won’t use virtues
We’ll use the one thing we’ve got more of: electability

Check our manifesto!
More powers for the likes of Monsanto
‘Cause what’s the point of leadership
If you won’t wave through TTIP
Or swingeing cuts to PIPs?
Oh really

No, this wasn’t meant to be
How did he end up on the ballot, NEC?
This loony lefty firebrand
Is now set in stone like Ed Miliband‘s election pledges

We’re staging a coup, we’re staging it now
We’re leaving the shadow cabinet
Just refuse to cooperate, yeah
We want your votes, we want your love
We want the things we feel are owed us
We won’t use bombs – er, except on Syria
We’ll use the one thing we’ve got more of: electability
And credibility
