In any case, if the "Row, Row, Row Your Boat" hand motions by the choir's conductor, the self-styled 'mla mamba', Tana River Senator Danson Mungatana, were anything to go by, then, by all means, Ichungwah escaped the crocodile's jaws and presumably had enough time to rehearse support for the Finance Bill as it braces for an iceberg.

"Amazing grace! How sweet the sound, That saved a wretch; like me! I once was lost, but now am found, Was blind, but now I see," they sang. I hope they'll see and find the tempo they all fit in during their Wednesday practice.

Give it to them though, they aren't everyday musicians. But they share a unique trait with Kenyan boy band Sauti Sol for they too will take an indefinite hiatus from the music scene as a choir once the Finance Bill is tabled before the House.

The tune they'll come up with as they trade jabs on the floor will make a great song, won't it?
