The Ballad of Harry Pollitt

Harry was a bolshie and one of Lenin’s lads
Was foully murdered by counter revolutionary cads
Counter revolutionary cads, counter revolutionary cads
Was foully murdered by counter revolutionary cads

He landed up in heaven trembling at the knees
‘May I speak to God I am Mr. Pollitt please
Mr. Pollitt please, Mr. Pollitt please,
May I speak to God I am Mr. Pollitt
