On Living Forever

Gather round the telly
Charlie will be King
His Majesty commands you
to do one extra thing
At the chosen time
you're supposed to stand
and loudly toast your loyalty
to the Monarch of our Land
 
"God save the King
May the King live forever"
Charlie might regret the day
he thought himself so clever
He might become our Ruler
He won't be a star
when all that's left are entrails
in a peanut butter jar
 
Maybe I'll not watch the show
and not be disappointed
I'll find a local boozer,
get thoroughly anointed
Here's the toast I'll loudly make
(On this I wouldn't kid)
I'll proudly sing "God Save The King
and tightly screw the lid!"
