CORONATION ODE
They came by pogo stick and tube, to Loyal London Town - To see their Liege and Emperor - Nick all, not quite screwed down. Herded by the thousands - Millions more watch on TV The Met’ watch all the watchers by A.I. - C.C.T.V.
Behold - A costly spectacle - No change in who’s to rule - In this - The country of the blind - (The one eyed man’s a fool.) No news at all occurred today! All planes refused to crash - No Murders - Rapes or Wars took place - To mar our Regal Bash.
“Zadok The Priest” - Rings out abroad - The Organ’s mighty thrum - An entourage of Spiv’s and Tart’s - Each osculates the bum. The crowds who've had their brains washed clean by God’s relentless rain - Observe their Ruler and his Bird, embezzle their domain.
They wave their soggy Union Flags - And very gently steam. (A clever move on someone’s part to make it Cowboy themed !) The King wears Gold Chased Spudguns, on the John Wayne Belt of State. The Queen rides "Trigger" up the aisle - No way they’ll abdicate.
The Witch Doctors turn out in force, recite the magic words - Anoint with God’s own axle grease * (Well shaken but not stirred.) All hatchets, briefly out of sight - Barabas freed from jail. The I.R.A. attend to show, no one’s “Beyond the Pale.”
Inclusive - Each minority (Or, those bereft of sense) Are represented - Token lite - In lieu of recompense. The Telly deconstructs the day - But nothing much get's said - The Great and Good apparently agree and nod their heads - Approved - Non controversial stuff - On one thing all concur -
“GOD SAVE KING HENRY CRUN THE FIRST! AND MINNIE BANNISTER!”
2 x Parts - WD40 - 1 x Part - Mary Queen of Scots Tears - 5 x Parts - Distilled essence of 300 years of Slavery./
