The smiled so much and waved their flags
to the military band
Most of the people failed to see
She had a broken bottle in the other hand
And she took them by surprise
When she took them by the throat
And she said "My friend you're not allowed to vote"
But they shook it all off,
With a nervous laugh and cough,
"Next time," she said "I'll let those people choke"
The people who grinned themselves to death
Smiled so much they failed to take a breath
And even when their kids were starving
They all thought the queen was charming
She polished all upon the wall
