Oh ! Take me back to dear old Blighty,
Put me on the train for London Town,
Take me anywhere,
Drop me anywhere,
Liverpool, Leeds or Birmingham
But I don`t care,
I should like to see my ...
I don`t bless them
Farewell to this land`s cheerless marshes
Hemmed in like a boar between arches
Her very Lowness with a head in a sling
I`m truly sorry - but it sounds like a wonderful thing
I said Charles, don`t you ever crave
To appear on the front of the Daily Mail
Dressed in your Mother`s bridal veil ?
Oh ...
And so, I checked all the registered historical facts
And I was shocked into shame to discover
How I`m the 18th pale descendant
Of some old queen or other
Oh, has the world changed, or have I changed ?
Oh has the world changed, or have I changed ?
Some 9-year old tough who peddles drugs
I swear to God
I swear : I never even knew what drugs were
Oh ...
So, I broke into the palace
With a sponge and a rusty spanner
She said : Eh, I know you, and you cannot sing
I said : That`s nothing - you should hear me play piano
We can go for a walk where it`s quiet and dry
And talk about precious things
But when you`re tied to your Mother`s apron
No-one talks about castration
Oh ...
We can go for a walk where it`s quiet and dry
And talk about precious things
Like love and law and poverty
Oh, these are the things that kill me
We can go for a walk where it`s quiet and dry
And talk about precious things
But the rain that flattens my hair ...
Oh, these are the things that kill me
All their lies about make-up and long hair, are still there
Past the Pub who saps your body
And the church who`ll snatch your money
The Queen is dead, boys
And it`s so lonely on a limb
Past the Pub that wrecks your body
And the church - all they want is your money
The Queen is dead, boys
And it`s so lonely on a limb
Life is very long, when you`re lonely
Life is very long, when you`re lonely
Life is very long, when you`re lonely
Life is very long, when you`re lonely
