The Queen
When she was fifteen
She was the Princess
You have got to confess
The Queen is keen
You can’t say she’s mean
Her children run
And have fun
In the sun.
She stops fights
In the nights
In time she stops crime
She ate a tart
And broke a piece of her heart,
She wears a crown
In a town,
As proof she is Queen
She makes soldiers run.
With tons
Of guns.
