Five thousand, one hundred and sixty-eight days of the UK ruled by a Tory government

Five thousand, one hundred and sixty-eight days of failure reinforced by lies and corruption

First, they gave you Brexit and the cost of life

Took away your protest rights

COVID took a ton of lives

Called the youth a "sacrifice"

NHS waiting lists, making friends with racists

No policy on poverty

Crackdown on refugees

The proverbial doormat they'll step on to get votes back

Put 'em in a boat, stat

Change, don't approach that

What's the trick? Call a genocide a conflict

Now every politician's fucking in on it

Fourteen yеars, a hundred sixty-eight months

Five thousand, onе hundred and sixty-eight nights

Five thousand, one hundred and sixty-eight days in which the UK has consistently declined

Why?

David Cameron, what was happening

When you created your own fucking nightmare?

I think you were quite aware Brexit wasn't necessary

You only cared about your own legacy

Now your legacy proudly stands as nothing but

Instigating ten years of lies in government

Theresa May, with all said and done

How the fuck did you contribute to the EU referendum?

You could not, would not, finish at last

The country was left to the whims of a psychopath

Boris Johnson, goes without mention

He'd lie about breakfast if it meant that he got seconds

Did you smile at the face of death

As your cronies described it as "unfortunate excess"?

Were you systematically withdrawn

Or were you really as thick as you let on?

Liz Truss stumbled in not long after

Her fifty days serving ended in disaster

Rishi Sunak, where do we start?

With another fucking narcissist who could've been smart

Sun-actually, factually, swiftly elected

As a billionaire posh boy with zero perspective

Lest we forget all the cunts that you gave a job

Braverman, Gove, Matt Hancock, and Rees-Mogg

Every single sycophant who stood idly by

Or directly threw logs at a country on fire

Are we overreacting a bit?

If we were in power, would we know how to manage it?

Or are we missing a point when we ask such a question?

Is knowing how to lead about kowledge or intention?

Oxford, master's, politics degree

But jokes about the food that the poor kids eat

Great Britain has been passed through the fingers of thieves

For five thousand, one hundred and sixty-eight fucking days

What have we achieved?
