The merry dance we lead is not our choice
Above the din, who hears a reasoned voice?
Politics, a dance filled with deceit
Has a syncopated rythmn for left feet!
Each frolics, it would seem, to his own tune
A twirl across the dance floor signals doom
Stepping out of line is tempting fate
Welcome "Little" Britain – goodbye "Great".
Common Sense is banished from the floor
Corruption seems the norm – observe the poor!
Democracy, which should our lives enhance,
In fact means happy feet don't stand a chance!

A novel approach, Sarah. Love it! Perhaps "Little Britain" with a capital "L" to emphasize the ridiculousness of the situation!
