Hooray! Hooray, we've won at last,
Labour finally has got in.
It was a magnificent landslide,
And what a magnificent win.
Tories wiped out in Wales and Scotland,
This news to me is glorious.
As they are at last the vanquished,
They'll say "This is no TORYous!"
With the Tories out and not before time,
The enemy of the workers.
In their eyes, if you're poor and unemployed,
You're treated just like shirkers.
After many years right has triumphed,
And unemployment should start to fall.
With the Tories, the poor were paid a pittance,
While the rich, they had a ball.
Crime now will soon be tackled,
So that you can go out without fear.
The deserving should start to benefit,
And prosperity will again be here. By B Howarth
