Down By the Palace

歌詞

Stewart Say 'bye 'bye to Liz and Phil, oh they did do well. Pop the doggies into the car, say au revoir. Where on earth will they sleep tonight? They got so many choices, it don't seem right. We got people living in boxes down by the palace, I don't like this business They know we got people living in boxes down by the palace, I don't like this business. Ooh all that dross round the monarchy well it costs too much. Time to kick those spongers and leeches into touch. We gonna put 'em in a council flat, Oh, lordy, lordy, they won't like that. We got people living in boxes down by the palace, I don't like this business They know we got people living in boxes down by the palace, I don't like this business. Look around, this is the twenty first century, Look again, do we really need a monarchy? Empires come, empires go, all those ruins go to show they were carved in stone but nothing is permanent. All this talk of a commonwealth, well it's just not true, They won't be sharing that royal purse with you or you or you or you. Time to put the crown to bed, they're gonna be screaming 'off with his head'. We got people living in boxes down by the palace, I don't like this business They know we got people living in boxes down by the palace, I don't like this business. Little Britain you're getting smaller everyday. Look around now watch the empire slipping awayayayayayay. Don't need a crystal ball to see, no, we're disappearing rapidly. We got people living in boxes down by the palace, I don't like this business They know we got people living in boxes down by the palace, I don't like this business. Look around, this is the twenty first century, Look again, do we really need a monarchy? Empires come, empires go, all those ruins go to show they were carved in stone but nothing is permanent. I don't like this business no it's time to put it right, People lost and wondering, oh where will I sleep tonight? 'You can't stay there son, you'd better move on. Lizzie's passing with her sparklers on. The sight of you will spoil her night, So get yer boxes out of her sight, 'bye 'bye aye aye.' People living in the modern world, they must think we're mad. All that bread for a monarchy well it looks so bad. Time to sell the family jewels, feed the needy, sack the fools, People living in boxes down by the palace, I don't like this business They know we got people living in boxes down by the palace, I don't like this business All around you, people living in boxes down by the palace, I don't like this business. Oh yes they know people living in boxes down by the palace, I don't like this business. Look around, this is the twenty first century, Look again, do we really need a monarchy? Ooh empires come, empires go, all those ruins go to show they were carved in stone but nothing is permanent. Look around, this is the twenty first century, Look again, do we really need a monarchy? Ooh empires come, empires go, all those ruins go to show they were carved in stone but nothing is permanent. I don't like this business, I don't like this business, I don't like this business.
