Lyrics
|
|
I'm William the Conqueror
|
|
My enemies stood no chance
|
|
They call me the first English king , although I come from France
|
|
1066, the Doomsday book I gave to history
|
|
So fat on death my body brust but enough about me
|
|
To help remember all your Kings, I've come up with this song
|
|
A simple rhyming ditty for you all to sing along
|
|
Oh William (bit short ain't it, we need more kings, who came next)
|
|
William Second cheeks were red
|
|
Killed out hunting so it's said
|
|
I took over Henry One
|
|
That's my next eldest song
|
|
Then King Stephen, it's true check it
|
|
I'm Henry Two killed Thomas Beckett
|
|
Richard Lionheart that's right.
|
|
Always spoiling for a fight
|
|
Oh King John what a disaster
|
|
Rule restrained by Magna Carta
|
|
William, William, Henry, Stephen, Henry, Richard, John, (Oi!)
|
|
Time for my mate Henry Eight to take up the this song
|
|
Henry Three built thee abbey
|
|
Ed one hated Scots
|
|
A red hot poker killed Ed Two
|
|
That's must have hurt him lots
|
|
Edward III was a chivalry nerd
|
|
Became the hundred years war
|
|
Then Richard Two was King aged ten
|
|
Then Henry yes one more
|
|
King Henry four
|
|
Plots galore
|
|
Not least from Henry Five
|
|
I killed ten score at Aringcourt
|
|
Then Henry Six arrived (Waaah!)
|
|
Edward four
|
|
Edward Five
|
|
Richard III he's bad
|
|
Cause he fought wars with Henry Seven first tutor and my dad
|
|
So Henry Eight, I was great
|
|
Six wives two were beheaded
|
|
Edward VI came next but he died young and so
|
|
My daughter Mary ruled so scary then along came
|
|
Me! I'm Liz the First I had no kids so Tutors RIP
|
|
William, William, Henry, Stephen, Henry, Richard, John (Oi)!)
|
|
Henry, Ed, Ed, Ed, Rich two, then three more Henrys join our song
|
|
Edward, Edward, Rich the Third
|
|
Henry, Henry, Ed again
|
|
Mary one, Good Queen Bess
|
|
That's me! Time for more men
|
|
James sixth of Scotland next as English James I he lead
|
|
Then Stuarts ruled so Charles I the one who lost his head
|
|
|
Lyrics
|
|
No Monarchy until came me Charles Two I like to party
|
|
King Jimmy two was scary
|
|
Then Mary was a smartie
|
|
She ruled with Bill, their shoes were filled
|
|
By sourpuss Queen Anne Gloria
|
|
And so from then you were ruled by men
|
|
Til along came me Victoria
|
|
William, William, Henry, Stephen, Henry, Richard, John, (Oi!)
|
|
Henry, Ed, Ed, Ed, Rich two, then three more Henrys join our song
|
|
Edward, Edward, Rich the Third
|
|
Henry, Henry, Ed again
|
|
Mary One, Good Queen Bess
|
|
Jimmy, Charles and Charles again!
|
|
Jim, Will Mary, Anna Gloria
|
|
Still to come it's Queen Victoria
|
|
And so became the Hangover gang George One and George Two (Grim!)
|
|
The George III was quite absurd
|
|
Til I replaced old him
|
|
George IV is known henceforth as angry, fat and cross (Hang on!)
|
|
It's true you beat Napoleon but were mostly a dead loss
|
|
Old William IV was a sailor (Ahoy!)
|
|
It's nearly the end of the Story-A
|
|
As of to the scene, comes the best loved Queen
|
|
All Hail to Queen Victoria
|
|
William, William, Henry, Stephen, Henry, Richard, John (Oi!))
|
|
Henry, Ed, Ed, Ed, Rich two, then three more Henrys join our song
|
|
Edward, Edward, Rich the Third
|
|
Henry, Henry, Ed again
|
|
Mary One, Good Queen Bess
|
|
Jimmy, Charles and Charles again
|
|
Jim, Will Mary, Anna Gloria
|
|
George, George, George, George, Will, Victoria
|
|
Victoria, Victoria, Victoria
|
|
I ruled for 64 years, you know
|
|
Edward Seven, George Five, Ed Eight, George Six
|
|
Liz two then reigned and how
|
|
And so oh our famous monarch song
|
|
William, William, Henry, Stephen, Henry, Richard, John (Oi)
|
|
Henry, Ed, Ed, Ed, Rich two, then three more Henrys join our song
|
|
Edward, Edward, Rich the Third
|
|
Henry, Henry, Ed again
|
|
Mary One, Good Queen Bess
|
|
Jimmy, Charles and Charles again
|
|
Jim, Will Mary, Anna Gloria
|
|
George, George, George, George, Will, Victoria
|
|
Edward, George, Edward, George Six
|
|
And Queen Liz Two completes the mix
|
|
That's all the English Kings and Queens
|
|
Since William I that there have been!
|
