Carolling the “Isles of Wonder”

My instant new version of  “Star of Wonder”

Isle of wonder
Isle of fright
Isle with dignitary blight
Fiscal bleeding
Coe proceeding
Soak us past our present plight.

Actually I prefer a much ruder last line which is more the measure of our glorious leaders’ opinions of the population! (Note apostrophe in correct place)

Treat us as your milch cow shite!

  1. Second verse:

    Go and live in countries far
    Doesn’t matter where you are
    Far from black spots
    With the have-nots
    Might as well be on a star!

    😮

  2. Janus: CO already parodied the second verse.

    First Verse

    We ex-pats from Britain all smile
    Bear no grudge while living in style
    We did not need nannies
    To get off our fannies
    and go for the extra mile.

  3. Gold star all round.
    I suppose you both realise that this is the title of the Olympic opening extravaganza?
    The original doggerel had absolutely nothing to do with the country!
