Thread Name: BS: Stuff the Jubilee - No Cuts
Subject: LyrAdd: Stuff the Jubillee
As this is primarily a music site:

STUFF THE JUBILEE
Nigel Parsons (Thoughts articulated below are not necessarily those of the author!)
Tune (As if you need to ask):Battle Hymn of the Republic

Co'lition of Resistance, they say "Stuff the Jubilee"
Anything the royals do is not for you and me.
The Queen makes lot of money, and all of it Tax Free
Vive la the revolution.

        Hurrah; Hurrah; say "Stuff the Jubilee"
        Hurrah; Hurrah; let's end the Monarchy
        I can't improve my standing, so drag others down to me!
        Vive la the revolution.

Charlie boy's a ******, and they say he talks to trees.
Philip does just what he wants, and says just as he please.
Why should I pay taxes to support the likes of these?
Vive la the revolution.

Edward (VIII) was a dilettante who couldn't stop the war
Abdicated just in time; with Wallis, who's a divorcee*
Nobody can tell me what the Monarchy is for,
Vive la the revolution.

Maybe we're fools, rushing in where angels fear to tread.
Michael Fagan was a man who saw the Queen in bed.
Maybe 'Froggies' got it right, It's "Off with every head!"
Vive la the revolution.

* I'm sure I could have made this rhyme/scan, the mot juste escapes me

Cheers
Nigel
