Songs in the Queen's English

    Lunchtime! I'm bored. I got thinking about pop songs in the Queen's English thanks to watching Spitting Image. What would yours be?

    One's whipped ice dairy drink brings the attention of many males to one's place of residence and/or employment
    And they declare its quality far surpasses that of yours
    Absolutely it surpasses yours
    One could give you the recipe
    But one would have to demand compensation

    Reference Spitting Image, the Queen's version of Gloria Gaynor's I Will Survive:




    Once I was adored
    I was glorified
    But then we had so many scandals
    That their sympathy was lorst
    Now I have to pay my taxes
    And one’s children are divorced
    Go on now go
    Walk out the door
    You’re not welcome anymore.

    Oh no, not one.
    One will survive.
    Oh as long as Charles is next in line
    I’ve got to stay alive!
    If they tax one I don’t care!
    I’ve got lots of cash to spare.

    It is a necessity that I acquaint you with my sentiments,
    I must coerce you to comprehend

    At no time shall I conclude our relations
    At no time shall I leave leave you in the lurch
    At no time shall I finagle and forsake you
    At no time shall I cause you lamentation
    At no time shall I say adieu
    At no time shall I prevaricate and cause you a disservice.

    "You just got rickrolled by the Fry, my boy."

    I just wanna tell you how Im feeling
    Gotta make you understand

    never gonna give you up
    Never gonna let you down
    Never gonna run around and desert you
    Never gonna make you cry
    Never gonna say goodbye
    Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

    Mater, I have recently performed a homocidal act on a gentleman.
    I positioned a firearm against his cranium, engaged the apparatus
    It pains me to report that at the present he is fully deceased.
    Momma, I just killed a man
    Put a gun against his head
    Pulled my trigger, now he's dead

    I have a predilection for large posteriors and this I will not dispute,
    You other gentlemen cannot refute
    I like big butts and I cannot lie
    You other brothers cannot lie

    can't be arsed doing the rest

    One more, then I'm back to work:

    Would you not prefer it if your betrothed were sexually attractive, as one is?
    Would you not prefer it if your betrothed could be induced to a state of untamed sexual abandon, as one can?
    Would you not?
    Would you not?
    Don'tcha wish your girlfriend was hot like me?
    Don'tcha wish your girlfriend was a freak like me?
    Don'tcha? Don'tcha?

    My loved ones implored upon me the urgency, in their opinion, of my going to a rehabilitation facility
    I had to insist, on three separate occasions, that I did not feel this was necessary
    While I accept I have had many depressive episodes in the past
    There will be quite a reaction upon my return to the limelight and no doubt you will notice this
    *
    For one thing, my schedule doesn't permit such an absence
    Besides, my father is of the opinion I am of sound mind and body
    Despite the fact he, also, asked me to attend a rehabilitative setting
    But again, I insisted - thrice - that in my mind this was not a valid option.
    *
    I would rather stay at home and listen to the music of Raymond Hathaway
    In any case, my work cannot be abandoned for the required period of one fortnight and 3 days
    And do you know, I feel there's very little in life worth knowing that I cannot learn from the music of the aforementioned Mr Hathaway.

    My academic achievements were quite limited.
    But I know it is not available in a liquid form of approximately 30 millitres and thus could not be dispensed into such a vessel.
