The Lyrics

In commemoration of Brexit Day, January 31, 2020.
All those worthless Eurocrats and their lackeys we shall crush;
Shout, lads, the battle cry of Leaving!
Those duplicitous Remainers, all whinging "Why the rush?"
Shout, lads, the battle cry of Leaving!

Hurrah for our Leaving! Give Remains the sack!
Down with their E.U. and up with our Jack!
Let us rally 'round our flag, lads; yes, rally 'round our flag,
Shouting the battle cry of Leaving!

No more tries to overturn what we chose to vote before;
Shout, lads, the battle cry of Leaving!
Let the backstabbers who tried that be shamed forevermore!
Shout, lads, the battle cry of Leaving!

Hurrah for our Leaving! We'll never go back!
Down with their E.U. and up with our Jack!
Let us rally 'round our flag, lads; yes, rally 'round our flag,
Shouting the battle cry of Leaving!

No more welcome to our shores, the rapacious and depraved;
Shout, lads, the battle cry of Leaving!
To Islamic paedophiles, never shall we be enslaved!
Shout, lads, the battle cry of Leaving!

Hurrah for our Leaving! Drive those rapists back!
Down with their E.U. and up with our Jack!
Let us rally 'round our flag, lads; yes, rally 'round our flag,
Shouting the battle cry of Leaving!

Unelected distant oppressive bodies we detest;
Shout, lads, the battle cry of Leaving!
As our nation now has left them, so now may all the rest!
Shout, lads, the battle cry of Leaving!

Hurrah for our Leaving! May their E.U. crack!
Down with their E.U. and up with our Jack!
Let us rally 'round our flag, lads; yes, rally 'round our flag,
Shouting the battle cry of Leaving!
Took 'em long enough!

I agree with your sentiments. Great original tune. Nice to see common sense rising again on the other side of the water.

In the end it will be those who think leaving is a step to freedom who suffer the most. It won't take that long before they start to realise that our troubles were never caused by Brussels Bureaucrats but by Whitehall ones. The rest of Europe has never been burdened with silly rules and authoritarianism the way we are. It's petty priministers from both parties who've spent decades driving our country into a mess, without the EU to annoy them they'll be able to do ever more damage to the people of our once proud nation, it has already started, the tories are cutting budgets in many of the "red wall" regions which turned blue for them in December.
