Lost a post - christmas carol

[O2Trees]

Hi all, Im trying to find the brilliant anti-poverty/anti-banker version of, I think, When Shepherds watched their flocks, which someone posted here. Was it Coughalot who posted it? I could have got that wrong.

Any help appreciated

Hi O2,

Yes I think it was coughalot. Hang on a mo.

By John F Hull

While Shoppers Shopped

(Tune: ‘While shepherds watched their

flocks by night’)

While shoppers shopped by day and night

all wondering how to pay,

a mighty credit card appeared

and said ‘I’m yours today’.

‘Fear not!’ it said, for awful dread

had seized their troubled thought,

‘Get what you want and later on

You’ll pay for what you’ve bought’.

Thus spoke the credit card and then

appeared a great big crowd

of bankers watching from on high

whilst laughing out aloud.

‘All glory be to interest rates

of thirty-six per cent.

Let people work the whole year round

to pay back what we’ve lent’

Thanks Huggs - you must be very organised to be able to find things like this!

Hi emmo,

No, not at all, and also not techie either.. I was just bunkered down because of the horrendous weather and had a bit of time, and remembered the original post.
