Wheels of Fortune

A famous Tory politician
Once said some things we didn’t like
He told us if we wanted success
Then we should all get on our bike

I’m not one to say I told you so
And Norman Tebbit’s not my mate
But now his words are making sense
Even if it’s a little bit late

We laughed at his pathetic words
We didn’t give them any chance
And now that fella Wiggins
Has gone and won the Tour De France

British cyclists at the Olympics
Our winners all be-medalled
Could it be our Norman Tebbit
That inspired the way they pedalled

Now when it comes to Winter games
Our teams are not so great
How can we improve them?
That will be the great debate

I can imagine the Tory Leaders now
Trying to think up another wheeze
How about telling the unemployed
To get out and about - on their Ski’s
