Farewell to the Crown

Chumbawamba

Poacher come with his poacher's gun 
Out in the woods to shoot someone 
"My lord your time has come" 
Right between the eyes! 
Fell his master not by chance 
Away with pomp and circumstance 
Come join our merry dance 
To the rhythm of goodbye 
(Chorus) 
Farewell the jewel crown 
Farewell the velvet gown 
Watch it all come tumbling down 
Goodbye to the crown 
Goodbye to the crown 
Goodbye to the King of Nothing, really 
Wave of a hand, not a life of Riley 
Part Nazi, part King Billy 
Goodbye to the crown 
Goodbye to the dear old mum 
Mummified on gin and rum 
Smile and wave and just play dumb 
Goodbye to the crown 
(Repeat chorus) 
Goodbye to the media whore 
And all the pious work for the poor 
And all the faces that she wore 
Goodbye to the crown 
Goodbye to the royal We 
And all its famous pedigree 
Let's put this dog to sleep 
Goodbye to the crown 
(Repeat chorus)
