Michael Gove has got to go!

I woke up this morning with Michael Gove in my head and I wrote this to get him out, More of a rant than anything. hanging out with the AntiPoet is finally rubbing off!



We Don’t Need No Education (Secretary)
 
Michael Gove,
Obnoxious cove.
I could leave it there.
Four words
doing the work of hundreds
and everyone knows what you mean.
 
Chorus
Michael Gove is a git of a man
A tit of a man, a shit of a man
He’s not even a bit of a man
And Gove has got to go.
 
Four words taking up four seconds on
Radio Four is all I ask
to spread an antidote to his foolishness,
the opposite of ideas.  
A new programme idea
“I’m sorry I haven’t a clerihew”.
 
Chorus
Michael Gove is a git of a man
A tit of a man, a shit of a man
He’s not even a bit of a man
And Gove has got to go.
 
And he has such a sound background
for education, being a journalist.
I don’t know if you’ve read the papers
But these days we don’t trust journalists
with journalism!
Let alone our future.
 
Chorus
Michael Gove is a git of a man
a tit of a man, a shit of a man.
He’s not even a bit of a man
and Gove has got to go.
 
His entire approach reeks of a boy
bullied at school, now harvesting
misplaced payback by fucking up a system
that left to its own devices and the
time and talents of dedicated staff
actually works pretty well.
 
Chorus
Michael Gove is a git of a man
A tit of a man, a shit of a man
He’s not even a bit of a man
And Gove has got to go.
 
So let’s banish his frightened frog face
spitting venom and misinformation
to the back benches. Let’s have a new policy;
Education Secretaries who know schools,
have taught children or worked with them
and here’s a thought, actually like them?
 
Final Chorus (with meaning and pitchforks)
Michael Gove is a git of a man
A tit of a man, a shit of a man
He’s not even a bit of a man
And Gove has got to go.
 
Gove has got to go!
Gove has got to go!
ad nauseum until the audience is a seething mass of burning justice and vengeance and then unleash!
