Cappicade Fiftyfive. "The Happy Squanderer" [1955]
A Song for Parliamentarians
A Song for Parliamentarians
Division bells, division bells
Ringing all the day,
Oh! what, fun in Bellamy's
Till they call us away.
Division bells, division bells
Sound their reveille,
We drop our cues
And leave our booze,
We dare not disobey.
Verse
Intent on comic strips
We utter pointless quips
Mouths filled with acid drips,
Pull faces at the whips,
Such lovely fun and games,
We call each other names,
Each one the other blames,
All day ad nauseames.
Chorus
Division belle, division bells,
Keep us up at night,
Oh how tiresome it can get
When Opposition's fight.
Please take them away,
If they were silent
We could stay
In Bellamy's all day.
