Oh Dear What Can The Matter Be? - !!!NEW!!!

Oh dear, what can the matter be? The EU referendum - that's what.
This started off as one simple verse but it soon expanded and twisted to become this.

Oh Dear, What Can The Matter Be not by Anon
Oh dear, what can the matter be?
We voted to leave the EU last month, you see
Now Cameron’s gone and Boris is Secretary
What on earth have we done now?

Thought that we would want to remain but he
Didn’t count on racists and bigotry
Teresa May’s now running the count-a-ry
What on earth have we done now?

The pound is up and down like a see-a-saw
It’s a sight that we’ve never seen before
We don’t know if Europe will close the door
What on earth have we done now?

The Scots are riled and want a new chance to flee
Didn’t think that this was what staying would mean
May is poised to launch Article 50
What on earth have we done now?

Need multicultural diversity
Instead chose our own individuality
Now hate crimes are all over the TV
What on earth have we done now?

Oh dear, what can the matter be?
Remain voters bemoan their lost victory
But that’s not how to move on from a defeat
That is what we must do now

Unite to save what’s left of humanity
Show the racists that they’re the minority
Focus on boosting the economy
That is what we must do now

The pound’s poor plight is not as bad as you think
It came back up shortly after it did sink
The world and we just need to have a rethink
That is what we must do now

The vote was close and a narrow victory
(But) to recast votes would hinder democracy
We must not let ourselves fall to misery
That is what we must do now

Scrapping and fighting is what we must not allow
Show what to be British does mean and how
To defeat we are not going to kowtow
That is what we must do now
