william
the politics of politics
behold “the people’s choice”
he may be music to their ears
but i’m his master’s voice
the dashing politician
let everyone raise a glass
another puppet takes a bow
with my hand up his ass
i knock them into shape
i mould them ‘til they fit
i plump the cushions on the seat
where i’d prefer to sit
i pull the strings
and call the shots
i groom them for the throne
i’m the tail that wags the dog
yet it’s the dog that gets the bone
he seemed the perfect package
but too bad he had a flaw
it only takes one weakness
and the press will pick it raw
we need a strong successor
does anyone spring to mind?
the monkey’s on the scr~p heap
watch the organ grinder grind
i knock them into shape
i mould them ‘til they fit
i plump the cushions on the seat
where i’d prefer to sit
i pull the strings
and call the shots
i groom them for the throne
i’m the tail that wags the dog
yet it’s the dog that gets the bone
it makes you ask what was it that led him to be untrue
it seems that every closet holds a skeleton or two
now we lose our

deposit
william
if we don’t find
william and ensemble
someone new
william
i’m thrilled to bits
the slipper fits
stand back i’m coming through
bow wow
bow wow
bow wow
i knock them into shape
ensemble
knock them into shape
william
i mould them ‘til they fit
ensemble
mould them ‘til they fit
william
i plump the cushions on the seat

plump the cushions
william
where i’d prefer to
william and ensemble
sit
i pull the strings
and call the shots
i groom them for the throne
william
i’m the tail that wags the dog
yet it’s the dog that gets
yes it’s the dog that gets
yet it’s the dog that gets the

dog that gets the
