Humphrey's Lament

Being Humphrey can be taxing
Though often it's relaxing -
There's very little work to do
When Ed Balls' done it all for you
Though he's probably not done a very good job
He's been quite lazy, and a bit of a slob
He's cut lots of corners, his standards are low,
But the number of mourners was roughly zero.
His circle was tiny; his friends were made-up
Over tea he had no company but the cup
He decided speed dating was the way to do
(Ironic for one so incredibly slow.)
