Re: Accrington Poets.
Christmas comes but once a year, sad though to note that Accrington never changes!!!
Shabby Town
( May be sung to the tune:
‘Oh Little town of Bethlehem‘ )
Oh shabby town of Accrington,
How sad we see thee lie,
Along thy dull and littered streets,
The disenchanted ply,
Oh what on earth is happening,
To this one thriving place?
Years of neglect and ignorance,
Add to the town’s disgrace.
Oh Hyndburn Council get a grip,
Before it is too late,
Clean up thy foul and littered streets,
Lest voters seal thy fate,
Oh use the monies that we pay,
To counter local ills,
Don’t auction off our heritage,
To pay your civic bills.
Amen
