Updated version of my parody God Save (us from) the King in honour of No Kings Day…

God Save (us from) the King (v2)
new words by Vikki Appleton Fielden ©17 June 2025

God save us from the King
Don’t let him touch a thing
God stay the King
Send him felonious
So disharmonious
To someplace incommodious
God stay the King

God save us from the King
It’s time to march and sing
“We don’t do kings!"
Put on your TACO hat
Veto his coup d'état
We won’t support an autocrat
We don’t do kings

God save us from the King
We won’t be worshiping
We don’t do kings
See every single state
Spurn his parade of hate
That’s how the people demonstrate
We don’t do kings
