It’s been a while since we revisited a sea shanty – you may recall, mother doesn’t approve of these – but we’ve dug deep and repurposed “Drunken Sailor” to talk about the news this week of the BBC cocking up their edit of a speech on a Panorama programme over a year ago (making it appear more vehement than it was). As a consequence of this hitting the headlines in a targeted attack on the UK’s flagship broadcaster, which has been caught up in culture wars, post-truth, and its own self-generated problems, Donald Trump has now issued a threat of legal action. Obviously this is a model he’s used to good effect (for his purposes) in the USA, having taken on ABC, CNN, and CBS and won big settlements there and elsewhere.
The first recorded description of “Drunken Sailor” is from a Pacific Ocean whaling voyage in 1839 that departed from New London, Connecticut. So very appropriate for Trump’s latest giant lumbering trans-oceanic phishing foray. You can find details about this fast-moving story, which will reach some kind of resolution by tomorrow when he’s given a deadline for his Austin Powers Dr. Evil-style threat of “One Billion Dollars” here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c...

LYRICS:
Watch what you do or Trump will nail ya!
Watch what you do or Trump will nail ya!
Watch what you do or Trump will nail ya!
BBC’s on warning
Bugger up an edit and you’ll be collared
He will sue for one billion dollars
Pay up soon or expect his lawyers
BBC’s on warning
They say the Beeb’s in crisis
Bad case of fake news-itis?
Why pay your TV license?
Does it need reforming?
Flak from the left for the coverage bias
Flak from the right for the woke mind virus
Worse PR than the guys in ISIS!
Traitors, coups, and warring
Trump’s on a roll - he’s a savvy felon
Score an own goal, and the threats he’ll send in
Lawsuits pop like a watered gremlin
BBC he’s scorning
Pay up for defamation
Press cowed in every nation
More airborne defecation
We all know what’s coming …
Caroline Leavitt’s like an angry poodle
Chewing on the bones of the White House Press Pool
Half the time, barking Yankee-Doodle!
Gaslighting and fawning
Way off on US prices
Way off on Nobel prizes
Floods the zone now they want reprises?
All while troops are storming!
Trump’s well known as an arch misleader!
Please don’t fold to a foreign leader
Why line up with the bottom feeders?
Aunty’s not for squirming
A made up man with his made up lies is
Not the sort that should polarise us
One edit wrong, so apologise,
Then carry on informing!
