I know some folks don't like her

But I really like the Queen,

I guess I'm sentimental

I like all things regal, see,

It's the fairytale idea I suppose

Of pretty princesses and crowns

And a handsome prince to pick you up

And whisk you off when you're down.

All the stories of kings of old

From Bohemia, Hungary and France

Can be witnessed on that balcony

If you can get the chance

To watch them, the royal lot,

Waving to the crowds,

To have a queen as long as we've had she

Makes me rather proud.

The monarchy's been remodelled

And that bit of pomp and glamour

Makes me marvel in commoner's awe

And my heart go pitter-patter.

So really, though some may disagree

I'd like to have my congratulations shown;

To the only woman here who can eat a swan,

Here's to sixty years on the throne.
