Major Foresight

 

Oh! Major Foresight where have you been?

We’ve looked all over and you haven’t been seen

What’s that you say?

You’ve been far away?

You travelled to the year Twenty Thirty

Tell us what promised delights you have seen

Is the planet revived and now fully green?

All powered by wind

Petrol vehicles binned

Or is everything still grey and dirty?

It’s conference season, faithful gather together

Trying to measure the political weather

Boris Johnson's the man

He explained his bold plan

Although it was certainly lacking in clarity

Virtually empty stadium, this inspirational oration,

Enthusiastically delivered was fed to the nation

Supporters all there

Question is where

Was the rest of the Conservative party?

No time for old Captain Hindsight, his days are through

So Major Foresight, we rely entirely on you

Please tell us now

Exactly just how

We are going to achieve this prosperity?
