Kings And QueensI'm as old as the King of SwedenI can drink in Connecticut You're a year older than the Princess Anne I don't mean it as an unkind cut I'll never catch King Hailie Selassie And you'll never catch Princess Grace No monarchy was to bequeathed to we But I'm a-hoping that we'll find our place At times I feel like Tutankhamun Won't you be my Nefertiti tonight? Hey, stock up on them tana leaves 'Cause the mummy's got to see the light Ah, Napoleon had his Jospehine And Pocahontas had her Captain Smith Queen Isabella Ferdinand was a fella But on Columbus she bestowed her gift I am the king of the hully-gully And you are the queen of slop Doing the hand-jive on the telly Let's go to the hop Oh baby, I'm as old as the King of Sweden I can drink in Connecticut You're a year older than the Princess Anne I don't mean it as an unkind cut |
