MINISTER FOR INFERNAL AFFAIRS

Oscar Orban was absolutely furious,
Which, for him, was somewhat curious,
Because he was not, by nature, a hostile gent.
But the matter in hand had got him quite bent!
Oscar had won his parliamentary seat through voting adoption,
Because it was considered he was the least worst option.
He had risen to Cabinet position, amid concerns and cares.
He had been chosen to be Minister of Infernal Affairs!
Yes, heading up the Infernal Affairs Department.
He had found his niche, his secure compartment.

There are so many hellish things associated with politics,
Oscar was in charge of how politicians got their kicks!
Remember, politics is the last refuge of the scoundrel,
Whatever the Political Party declared on his lapel roundel.
So, Oscar devised many hellish relaxations,
For Politicians during their vacations.
Politicians are accustomed to furores they’ve created!,
Sometimes seemingly with adverse forces they’ve mated.
So a vacation in a hellishly hot clime,
Would seem to be something not before time!

Oscar Orban was a very fair man,
Concerned to give equitable advice whenever he can.
So, when it came time to consider the Prime Minister,
He determined to concoct something really sinister!
