Here was pooty girls Primrosing madly, and spiling their tempers a lump,
By telling absurd taradiddles for some big political pump;
And there wos 'ard-mouthed middle-aged 'uns a shaking the Socherlist flag,
And a ramping like tiger-cats tipsy around a rediklus red rag.
There wos patriots playing the clown, there was magistrates playing the fool;
There wos jugginses teaching the trombone to kids at a bloomin' Board School.
