Marty Willson-Piper - Evil Queen of England lyrics

Elizabeth, this time it isn't you

But she who shouts and blasts

us with blue

The brilliance of making war

Rotten to the very core

She's hammered planks across

my door

Some sensitivity might pull us through.

And the Evil Queen of England

Puts us down

So cold so heartless

And oh so glory bound

Queen of evil and of iron

Can't you see there's people crying.

Being fair still gets you through

the day

But your dark soul is getting in

the way

You must believe in equality

In pride and people's dignity

Stop killing the family

You sacrifice the servants to

the kings

And the Evil Queen of England

Looks away

So ignorant and bad

She's made us pay

Queen of evil and of iron

Can't you see there's people

dying

You light cigars with ten

pound notes

You dance in the castle

As we drown in the moat

Your're pushing heads below

the waterline

And I've let you be the evil

Queen again

And now I need something

To help me dull the pain

A blue-eyed Marie Antoinette

Your speeches stale cigarettes

Give back our hearts

Repay our debts

I can't believe in anything

you do.

And the Evil Queen of England

Left a scar

And then she drove away

In a black expensive car

Queen of Evil and of iron

Remove our chains and help us

Climb away.

Remove our chains and help us

Climb away.
