I'm truly sorry [D] but it sounds like a wonderful [B] thing.
I said, Charles, don't you ever crave to appear on the front with the Daily Mail?
[D] The less than your mother [E] and your ride and bail.
[G]
[A] [Abm] [Eb]
[E] So [B] I checked all the register of historical facts and I was shoved into shame to discover
how I'm the 18th male descendant [E] [D] of some old creep or [E] other.
[B] Oh, has the world changed, the rules are changed.
Oh, has the world changed, the rules are changed.
Then nine year old tough extract, I swear, trick or I [Bm] swear, and I breathe a new [E] one.

[E] [B] broke into the palace with a sponge and a rusty planner.
She said, Anne, you cannot sing.
I said, that's nothing, [D] you should hear me play [E] piano.
[B] We can go for a walk where it's quiet and dry and talk about precious things.
But when you're tied to your mother's apron, [D] no one [E] talks about [G] prostitution.

But the rain that flattens my hair, [D] oh, the rain.
[E] [B] Oh, [G] [Em] the life [B] I've made, but I'm [E] not wearing [A] it.
[E] [B] I can pop the sassy body in the church's natural money.
The queen, [D] the dead boy, [E] the soul of the [B] aniline.
