Lyrics
So I guess you already know what happened next
How I came to England, hopeful
Summoned after the King saw my portrait
And how I, with my meager looks they are
Didn't live up to his expectations
I mean, it's the usual story, isn't it?
The savvy, educated young princess deemed repulsive
By a wheezing, wrinkled, ulcer-riddled man
24 years her senior
Rejection, rejection from a king
I mean, how could anyone overcome a fate as devastating as being forced to
To move into a resplendent palace in Richmond
With more money than I could spend in a lifetime
And not a single man around to tell me what to do with it?
I mean, seriously!
It's just just- it's- it's tragic
