Any suggestions for anti-Thatcher tracks. Could a classic album be made from it?

Lyrics to the TVPs song, from memory:

Well if she makes you sad and blue
There's one thing that you can do
Relax your mind and float downstream
Pretend it's all a very bad dream
She's a witch and she's absurd
I'd like to give her what she really deserves
Like to knock her greenhouse down
And trample on her roses
(chorus)
We don't want you anymore
We don't need you anymore
We don't love you anymore
So now you know the score
Don't you let her get you down
She's only the grocer's daughter
She's a devil in disguise
I'd like to poke her in the eyes
All dressed in blue
Blue hair, blue shoes
I'd like to paint her in the nude
And I heard it is her birthday soon
I'd like to buy her a ticket to the moon,
And a leatherbound set of Mills and Boon
(coda)
Never buy a second-hand car
From the grocer's daughter
I'd like to put her across my knee
I think somebody oughtta....

Wait: Is she actually dead? It's terrible, I found myself hoping a bit. Talk about Schadenfreude.

There's a great old early-90's dance tune that samples Maggie in a proto-Cassette Boy manner... it goes "acid party/come to the party/let's have a party/come to the bass" and then has several minutes of out-of-context quotes like "this is a better record than the Labour party could ever have".

It's great, and I wish I knew what it was called.
