Superman
(Feb 2002)

Is it a bird? Is it a plane?
No, it's Blair flying off again.
With arm outstretched he soars away -
Where's he going to land today?

It could be Kabul, it could be Rome,
It certainly won't be near to home,
For here he seems so ill at ease
Caught up in the usual sleaze.

Standing knee-deep in the mire
He says that smoke does not need fire:
Perhaps the spin has spun so much
That even he is out of touch.

He can't believe there's so much fuss,
But then again, it's only us -
It's to the world stage that he looks
To make his entry in the history books.
