The Twelve Days Of Brexit

On the first day of Brexit
My true love sent to me
A tollbooth in the Irish Sea.

On the second day of Brexit
My true love sent to me
Two roadkill doves,
And a tollbooth in the Irish Sea.

On the third day of Brexit
My true love sent to me
Three dead rats,
Two roadkill doves,
And a tollbooth in the Irish Sea.

On the fourth day of Brexit
My true love sent to me
Four starving cats,
Three dead rats,
Two roadkill doves,
And a tollbooth in the Irish Sea.

My true love sent to me
Five mouldy crusts,
Four starving cats,
Three dead rats,
Two roadkill doves,
And a tollbooth in the Irish Sea.

Six geese a-dying,
Five mouldy crusts,

Two roadkill doves,
And a tollbooth in the Irish Sea.

On the seventh day of Brexit
My true love sent to me
Seven swabs of rickets,
Six geese a-dying,

Two roadkill doves,
And a tollbooth in the Irish Sea.

Two roadkill doves,
And a tollbooth in the Irish Sea.

On the twelfth day of Brexit
My true love sent to me
Twelve Tories humming,
Eleven paupers homeless,
Ten lords a-leaving,
Nine mothers crying,
Eight maids illegal,
Seven swabs of rickets,
Six geese a-dying,
Five mouldy crusts,
Four starving cats,
Three dead rats,
Two roadkill doves,
And a tollbooth in the Irish Sea.
