<May and Barnier at a table. ‘Be Our Guest’ starts playing>

BARNIER <sings>

Ma Cherie, it is with deepest pride and greatest pleasure that we welcome you back. And now we invite you to relax, let us pull up a chair, as the EU Commission proudly considers…

reopening your deal
Be.
Our.
Guest.
Be our guest
Put our resolve to the test
Tie that noose around your neck, Therese
Let history do the rest.
Open up
The talks again
Though you still don’t have a plan
Our negotiators here are vicious
Don't believe? Ask Varoufakis
You can sing
You can dance
But your problem is not France
Gibraltan sovereignty is something Spain will test!
Go on, recite your red lines
‘Spite the looming deadline

Be our guest
Oui, our guest
Be our guest
Dom’nic Raab
Steve Barclay
Dave Davis back in the day
All full of air, and bad hair
A pure gammon cabaret!
You're alone
And you're scared
But this deal was all prepared
You weren’t gloomy or complaining
When first we were negotiating

It’s a joke
It’s a trick
For this backstop YOU did pick
Reopen this and one thing you can bet:
We’ll see your lack of class
And give you no free pass

But be out guest
(If you're stressed
It's resigning we suggest)
Be our guest
Be our guest
Be our guest
Life is so unnerving
For a PM who's not serving
A smooth ship that they can whip, rely upon
Ah, those good old days with a majority
Sadly those good old days are now long gone
Two whole years we’ve been waiting!
Needing more than obviating
Needing excise, customs, rules on labour skilled
Most days we just read the news all baffled

Impractical and hazy
Your new Bill is still just crazy!
TUSK <sings>

Be our guest
Be our guest
Sakes alive, we’ll all be blessed
When deal’s secured and thank the Lord
This whole shitshow’s put to rest.
No-Deals’ bad
She must see
It hurts Britain more than we
And while the ERG are mewling
A disaster big is brewing
‘Brexit means
Brext’ fine
But that’s just a weasely line
It’s not a plan and we are highly unimpressed
There’s way too much to do
In just a month or two

But be our guest

EU COMMISSION <sings>

She's our guest
She's our guest
She's our guest
Be our guest
Be our guest
Our command is your request
It's two years since we had anybody here
Who with brains was blessed
Bring a deal
Not legalese
And indeed, we’ll aim to please
While the time that’s left is going
Let us help you
We'll keep going…
BARNIER <sings>

Clause by clause
One by one
'Til you shout, “enough, I'm done”
As the truth of what you’re doing manifests:
Place party unity
Above your country’s need
No be our guest
Be our guest

Please, be our guest.
AND... that brings this very special musical brexit week to the end! I hope you enjoyed it. Previous parts:

Rees-Mogg 'Be Prepared':

Cooper/Boles 'Can You feel the love':

And Gove singling 'Let it Go':
DON'T FORGET IT'S FRIDAY YAY!

So if you've enjoyed these you can buy me a beer by going here. It is VERY much appreciated! ko-fi.com/garius

Even if you don't, that's cool! But please like, retweet and spread the word. Back to regular Brexit dialogues next week!
