Statesmanship

When unemployment's on the climb,
The great and good know 'tis the time
To find someone to blame.
To all who know the ropes it's clear,
A handy class of people's here
Which neatly fits the frame.

When you are staring at recession
And all about you is depression,
Be neither sad nor blue;
But cleanse the land - a super trick:
Lock someone up, and always pick
A poorer man than you.

When public adoration's weaker,
Grab hold of an asylum seeker
And act the carefree lout.
When your salvation's hard to see,
Mount dawn raids on a refugee
And kick the bugger out.
