Procrastination’s now the tool of choice
When used by those who cannot bear to leave
Denying (thru attempts to stifle voice)
Of democratic rights (they misperceive)
Tis freedom (of a sort) the people crave
From wanton regulation o’er our lives
Where once co-operation was the rave
Such monolithic entity deprives
Tho economic forecasts may seem bleak
There’s more to life than balance sheets et al.
Our leaders should then listen when we speak
Lest all will count the cost of low morale
Thru “Vive la Difference” (as French friends say)
Identity’s been lost along the way
