Lillibet's Gone
to the tune of Lavender's Blue
new words ©Vikki Appleton Fielden, Sept 2022
Lavender's blue, dilly, dilly
Lavender's green
There's a new King, dilly, dilly
We've lost our Queen
How many years, dilly dilly
Did our Liz reign?
70 years dilly dilly
Somehow stayed sane
What happens now, dilly dilly
Now that she's gone?
Charlie is King dilly dilly
He'll carry on
With his true love dilly dilly
Here's the report
Camilla dear, dilly dilly
Is Queen Consort
How will you mourn dilly dilly?
Watch BBC
Nothing else on dilly dilly
But royalty
Summer is past, dilly, dilly
Swifts on the wing
Lillibet's gone, dilly, dilly
God save the King
