the turn-coats

 

The turn-coats

They can have a new home

They can wear new uniforms

Trust and disciple forever lost


They can invent words or strategies

Running down their former party

The voters will not be fools

They will have to pay


The turn-coats

In publicity with new uniforms

The heavy loads they can't stomach

Rain or shine they can't match


In the new home

The smell of paint and glamour

In the fight for honour and integrity

They will have nothing to say


The turn-coats

They will not smell success

They will learn the hard way

Honesty still stands in good stead
