Georgie Claus is coming to town

You better watch out
You might want to cry
The Budget’s Out
And Osborne’s been sly

Georgie Claus is coming to town!
He’s made a list
It’s quite precise
A Tory mix of naughty and nice
Georgie Claus is coming to town!
His swinging cuts are sweeping,
But there’s icing on the cake!
A 1p cut in petrol prices
Makes up for that heart ache!

But you better watch out!
You might want to cry

Libraries are shut,
And inflation is high!
Georgie claus is coming to town
Georgie claus is coming to town

You better watch out
You might want to cry

naught-point-eight percent cut
When fuel tax so high

Georgie Claus is coming to town!
Here’s the jist,
He’s skating on ice,
The headlines to-mor-row may well be nice
Georgie Claus is coming to town!
The de-vils in the detail!
His spin and lies are fake
A 1p cut in petrol prices
Is a cherry on a slipper snake!

So! you better watch out!
You might want to cry

You pay your tax

City traders get high!

Georgie claus is coming to town
Georgie claus is coming to town

And his bullshit budget will cost you a crown
