Apologies to Kenny Rogers (Ruby, Don't take your love to Town) Will the NDP pull the plug on the Tories - Pensions a factor?Stevie, Please Don’t drop the writ.
(Backbencher’s Pension Lament -Class of 2006)
You've written up your plan
And attacked Jack, IGGY and Bob Rae
Stevie are you contemplating
Dropping the writ today?
The shadow on the wall
Tells me my pension is looking grim
Oh Stevie, Don't drop the writ,
My re-election chances are really slim.
It wasn't me
That started that crazy prorogue caper
But I was proud to stand at your side
And back you in the local paper
And yes, it's true that
I'm not the man I used to be
Oh, Stevie I still need my MP RSP.
It's hard to protect a backbencher
Whose ambitions will never be realized
That the wants and needs of a man of your age
Stevie, I idolize.
but it won't be long I've heard them say
until I'm not returned to sit
Oh Stevie
Please, please don’t drop the writ.
He’s leaving now cause
I just heard the slamming of the caucus door
The way I know I've heard it
Slam one hundred times before.
And if I could I’d plead once more,
For a Senate Seat.
Oh Stevie
Please. please I'm begging you, don’t drop the writ
Oh Stevie, my career is in deep S**t.
