A Stones Classic Reimagined for the Merkel Visit

                   Angie

Angie, Angie

When will those clouds all disappear?

 

There’s no lovin’ from the Don.

All your US friends are gone.

Let me whisper in your ear.

Angie, Angie,

Where will you lead us from here?

 

No more bailouts for the Greeks.

Won’t they just leave you in peace?

You can’t say they’re satisfied.

But Angie, Angie

They can’t say you never tried.

 

All your dreams for the EU

Now it seems that they’re all through.

Come on, baby, dry your eyes.

But Angie, Angie

Keep democracy alive.

 

Angie, Angie

It ain’t time to say goodbye.

 

Parody of “Angie” by the Rolling Stones.
