West Side Story influenced English Civil War Song!
Lyrics:-
We are the Roundheads,
We don't want Kings no more
That's why we started the English Civil War
People say we're no fun
But we disagree...
Especially when explaining Parliamentary democracy
We are particularly excited by notions of jurisprudence...
That's enough dullness, we're the Cavalier crew
Supporting King Charles and everything that'll he do
Puritans bore us, it's really a crime
When your Parliamentary business cuts our partying time
Roundheads, sound heads
Keep-the-music-down heads
Rules and regulations
They're dull but fair!
Cavaliers, three cheers,
Wackier head-gears,
We live to boogie with our peers.
Unfair? Don't care!
I am the King, I can do what I like
Start up a war, or a big tax hike
Got a French wife, she's a Catholic...
(Oh Lor'!)
But really King Charles we're not quite sure
Insolence - is that how you talk to the crown?
I am the King, I'll just close parliament down...
I think you'll find that's in breach of due process.
Here's what we say to that - now clear up this mess
Roundheads, sound heads
Witches-should-be-drowned heads
Don't believe in crowned heads...
Parliament's our thing
Cavaliers, three cheers
Your superiors...
We're all toffs who cry, "Hear, hear," and, "God save the King!"
Fight, fight, fight, fight!
Fight, fight, fight, fight!
Cavaliers, Roundheads, the English Civil War.
Why is it called Civil?
May I kill you please? Sure!
Love Civil wars to be fought on this land
If I get to power, Christmas will be banned
No chance Cromwell
Victory will be mine!
You'll never pass a ban on mince pies and mulled wine
That's what do you think - Just wait till you're caught
I'll also scrap theatre, music and sport...
You're pathetic - War will finish even before it's begun!
We've taken Charles prisoner, the Roundheads have won!
Oh.
Victory, three cheers
Cavaliers in tears
No power for years
I'm the leader of the pack!
Charles' head, Roundhead
Hurrah, now the King's dead!
Sins binned, instead a righteous track!
But we'll be back!
