QotD: Billy Bragg gets his very own Internationale

Facebook friends of Mr Bragg, annoyed at his endless pre-election shilling for the Lib-Dems and his assurances that they would never form a coalition with the Tories, have written their own version of The Internationale for him:

Desert your working class traditions,
Renege on all the hopes of man
For middle class is the position
And consensus is the plan

Forget your history and reason
Servile masses, you know your place
For now class warfare’s the new treason
And the market, we embrace

So to dorset we’ll hurry
And pretend that day is night
And proletarian best interests
Are served by Clegg, that shite

In the final conflict
We now know where we will be
The sordid wasted cannon fodder
For the Liberal bourgeoisie
