Oh, what a surprise!
Harcourt was dumbfoundered, Churchill was dished;
Loud cheered the To-ries!
Didn’t the Chaplinites hallo and shout?
Harcourt and others, of course, expressed doubt,

In that they’ll be wise.
Cut down the Annual Charge on the Debt;
Penny off Income Tax—good bait, you bet,
Lib’rals or Tories, they’re all glad to get
