    Will be a day for leisure
    And every man must chuck his work
    And sally forth for pleasure
    VI
    Every labouring man
    In harvest and haymaking
    Must get four bob a day
    And plenty of Irish bacon
    And every public house
    Will fling its doors wide open
    To supply the decent voters free
    So, Mr Codd has spoken
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
