Squadrons
of morris men
will be there
Rockabilly bands
high on lorries
Hip hoppers
on urban floats
chantey men
on canal boats
massed choirs
of middle england
singing Jerusalem
In the city square
all coming up
to taste the
Manchester air
there will be
a hammering
of dulcimers
a frailing
of banjos
a tribute
beatle band
just wanting to
hold a hand
saving john lennon
the last dance
let's give peace a chance
bread not bombs
and
nothing arty
just an
honest message to
the Labour Party........

time to tell Blair to be gone
with his chums at the Pentagon.
