Those buggers at the BBC
Just can't leave well alone.
They've taken what was radio heaven —
I mean of course dear Radio 7 —
And cut out much of what was best
For reasons of their own.
Of course it's true it's much the same
Despite its sad '4 extra' name,
But so is human DNA
A lot like chimpanzees', they say,
And yet a chimp is not a man,
And I'm afraid I'm not a fan
Of this unnecessary change.
The great, anarchic Alex Riley
Replaced with Arthur ruddy Smith,
With worthy, safe old Arthur Smith.
And sexy, breathy Michaela S —
Oh, how I miss her alto tones.
And clipped, exact Miss Helen Ait-ken
The t and k precise, distinct —
The crime and thrillers aren't the same
Since they replaced you with a drone.
Farewell the greatest show on earth!
Hello to mediocrity.
