England sweet England (Budget Day Remix)

England is sometimes so damn sweet
early Friday evening in the Rusty Bicycle
at the end of a quintessentially English spring week
first flushes of flesh now on show
pretty bare legs displayed with a casual pride
wintered white cleavages and end-of-week smiles
handsome young blokes in freshly-ironed shirts
handsome amber pints in hand
amicably debriefing with their beer-swilling mates
whilst all the while

(with barely disguised guile)
expertly considering
the lay of the land


Everyone looks happy this fine Friday evening
This is an anarchist-communist-hedonist pub
Fuck the Tories and their self-pleasuring budget
because generosity is England's best grub
by far, my friend
generosity is England's best grub
