Lyrics
(Music: James Dean Bradfield/Sean Moore; Lyrics: Nicky Wire) You are so alone In Kensington Palace We should be content In these damp terraces Thank you for this view From our council estates I hope you have really Guillotined your own head I crown myself, myself a king And declare a first republic We want to play yes we want to play In the burnt out palace ruins You once gave us war Racism and slavery Cut out all our tongues And f*cked our industry Now you've revealed something That you're human after all this But let's clap our hands And f*ck our dear princess I crown myself, myself a king And declare a first republic We want to play yes we want to play In the burnt out palace ruins I crown myself, myself a king And declare a first republic We want to play yes we want to play In the burnt out palace ruins (c) 1996 Sony Music Publishing Ltd.
