Written on hearing that Boris Johnson has become Mayor of London

The Blue City Blues

Boris has won London
An' I don't know what to do
Yeah, Boris has won London,
An' I don't know what to do
My tea's gone cold, I'm feelin' old,
I got the Blue City Blues.

[Guitar refrain]

Red Ken's dead, my baby,
Red's dead, baby, ooh -
Red Ken's dead, my baby,
Red's dead, baby, ooh -
My elbow aches, I'm outta cakes -
I got the Blue City Blues.

[Guitar refrain]

They're all singin' 'Tory, Tory
Halle-LUJAH!'
at the news;
Yeah, they're singin' 'Tory Tory
Halle-LUJAH!'
at the news -
I'm feelin' down, O Mr Brown
I got the Blue City Blues.

[Guitar refrain]

Boris has won London
An' I don't know what to do
Yeah, Boris has won London,
An' I don't know what to do
My tea's gone cold, I'm feelin' old,
I got the Blue City Blues.

[Guitar refrain]

From Hampstead Heath to Heathrow Heights, new parents (and/or dog-owners) will be naming their babies (and/or corgis) Boris. There's something about the combination of sagging jowels and the politics of Margaret Thatcher that's clearly irresistible.

I heard an interview with him on Parky once where Parky picked him up on a piece where he said that he found Margaret Thatcher 'sexy'. Can't find the quote online, though the google search was interesting...

Even more interesting than my spelling of jowl.

TimT said...

I like the alternative spelling of jowl. If rhymed words like 'scowl', 'fowl', etc, were spelled and pronounced that way, then it could add extra emphasis to them, eg,

'Scowel'
'Fowel'
'Howel'

Good tune, you will survive. YEY BORIS! Boris may be a buffoon, but at least he's not a communist one.
I bet he won't let the 'Asian Yooth' gangs carry out hate crimes based on race and religion and get away with it anymore.

Bloody good news! Praise the Lord! Thank God! There is hope for Londonistan. What will Red Ken do next?

The very idea of a Lord Mayor of anywhere ... Melbourne anyone ? ... is going to be bad.

I love it that BJ managed to get out issues of The Spectator when he was having an extra-marital,
his main writer Rod Liddell was having an extra-marital (on his honeymoon) and the publisher of The Spec was also having an extra-marital (infamously, with David Blunkett - recall the fight over the little boy?).
The very fact that they got The Spec onto newstands with all that going on, tells me he has the ability to run The Greatest City In The World.

If you can be arsed visiting my links, the Ben Locker blog Scorn & Noise has many pix of BJ - I think Ben works for him.

Wow. I didn't know all that, especially the salacious detail about Rod Liddle have an extra-m on his honeymoon! It's the Sextator, all right! No wonder Liddle and BJ always seemed so chummy.

I'll saunter over and have a look soon.
