The Queen Is Dead / Take Me Back to Dear Old Bligh

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 myI 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 thingI 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 otherOh, has the world changed, or have I changed?

Oh has the world changed, or have I changed?Some nine-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

OhWe 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 meWe 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 meAll their lies about make-up and long hair, are still therePast 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 limbLife 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
