An interesting ditty

[Laurence Hogg]

Found in a old storage file dating back over 10 years, sentiments rather interesting, fits to a well known song by "Boyszone" " No matter what". Why it was penned is a mystery.

No matter what DEFRA tell us
No matter about the EU
No matter what they teach us
What BW believe is true

No explanations fool  us
However they may attack
No matter where they take us
We'll navigate a way back

Waterways are what we believe
A truly British lot
Heritage to love forever
Part of Britain no matter what

If only cuts were laughter
If only the EU would pay
If only true guilt was answered
Then we would hear Britain say

No matter what DEFRA tell us
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What BW believe is true

We strive for BW safe & strong
financed away from the storm
No matter what it takes
This dream is already born

No matter who Defra follow
No matter where they lead
No matter how they judge us
We'll be everyone you need

No matter if the sun don't shine
Or if the waters not so blue
No matter what the end is
our lives are alongside you

We can't deny what we believe
Waterways cannot be what they’r not
I know, I know
I know this heritage is forever
That's all that matters now
No matter what

Am I the only one who's a little surprised that Laurence is a Boyzone fan?  What next?  Bewitched?  Westlife?  Jedward?
