This son of referendum
Unfurling discontentum
‘Cross Party Conservatorium
- So lacking in disciplinarian
And good old-fashioned decorum?
Can’t someone please just send ‘em
To the EU’s viginti Septem
To get an agreed addendum,
Expunge each corrigendum
And make a new tenendum,
Not to mention definiendum,
To end this irksome conundrum
That’s caused such great opprobrium
And large intakes of (inter alia) opium,
And create a new agendum
That all can fain credendum,
And bring a pleasing endum
To this Brexit pandaemonium?
