Letra de The queen is dead (rank)

Hello !
farewell to these marshes
hemmed in like a boar between arches
her very lowness with a head in a sling
i'm truly sorry - it sounds like a wonderful thing

i said charles, don't you ever craze
to appear on the front of the daily mail
blessed in your mother's bridal veil ?
oh ...
and so, i checked all the registered historical facts
i was shocked into shame to discover
i am 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 never even knew what drugs were
so, i broke into the palace
with a sponge and a rusty spanner
she said : "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 talk about ...

past the pub who breaks 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 who wrecks your body
and the church - all they want is your money
the queen is dead, boys
you can trust me, boys

life is very long, when you're lonely
life is very long, when you're lonely
