In Cardiff streets, you will find a help-yourself job
Therefore you’ll be in a daydream, with a capitalistic hope
If you keep your distance far from the street mob
By a new gimmick, bringing unemployment down
If you get the right tip from Labour’s think-tank-mind.

There is a young man trying to sell the Big Issue,
On his chest is written, “Working is not begging”
Which is something better than nothing
I wonder who initiated such an idealistic thing.

But I realised it’s not easy selling big issue things
Still, I wanted to help him for his hard working
Instead of in Cardiff shopping centre aimlessly lurking.
After all, I belong to a part of working nation
Therefore I must show him my compassion.
The weather was cold he had a runny nose
Which made me sorry; I gave him a soft tissue
By doing that, I approved Labour’s hard working issue.

Then he said, “Thanks for caring more than Mr Blair
Someone told me, President Chirac has more care.
“If you go to France, with normal balance on finance
Chirac gives you a franchised girl with soft tissue.
Which is the way that president Chirac is solving
Europe’s jobless, loveless, even condom-less issues”.

I said, how good of Chirac, to wish you in France good luck
Who knows our artful Blair forever will miss you
Once you’re happy with President Chirac’s girls’ tissue.
Working not begging, begging is a sin
In a way, you are Cardiff’s Big Issue King.
