Queen II


The sleeve

Father to Son

A word in your ear
From father to son
Hear the word that I say
I fought with you
Fought on your side
Long before you were born
Joyful the sound
The word goes around
From father to son

And the voice is so clear
Time after time it keeps
Calling you calling you on
Don't destriy what you see
Your country to be
Just keep building on the ground
That's been won
Kings will be crowned
The word goes around
From father to son

A word in your ear
From father to son
Funny you don't ear
A single word that I say
But mt letter to you
Will stay by my side
Through the years
Till the loniness is gone

Sing if you will
But the air you breathe
I live to give you
Father to son to son father to son to son
Joyful the sound
Word goes around
Father to son to son
Kings will be crowned
Earth goes around
Father to son to son

Joyful the sound
Word goes around
Father to son to son
Kings will be crowned
Earth goes around
Father to son to son


White Queen

So sad her eyes smiling dark eyes
So sad her eyes as it began
On such a breathless night as this
Upon my brow the lightest kiss
I walked alone
And all around the air did away
My lady soon will stir this way
In sorrow known
The white queen walks
And the night grows pale
Stars of lovingness in her hair
Needing unhear pleading one word
So sad my eyes she cannot see

How did thee fare what have thee seen
The mother of the willow have I stayed
I love the footsteps that she made
And when she came
White queen how my heart did ache
And dry my lo=ips no word would make
So still I wait

My goddess hear my darkest fear
I speak too late
It's for evermore that I wait
Dear friends goodbye
No tears in my eyes
So sad it ends as it began


Some Day One Day

You never heard my songs before
The music was too loud
But now I think you hear me well
For now we both know now
No star can light our way
In this cloud of dark and fear
But some day one day

Funny how the pages turn
And hold us in between
A misty castle waits for you
And you shall be a queen
Today the cloud it hangs
Over us and all is grey
But some day one day

When I was you and you were me
Together took us nearly there
The rest may not be sung
So still the cloud it hangs
Over us and we're alone
But some day one day
We'll come home


The Loser in the End

Mama 's got a problem
She don't know what to say
Her little baby boy
Has just left home today
She's got to be the loser in the end
She's got to be the loser in the end
Misuse her and you'll lose her as a friend
She's Ma on who you can always depend oh

She washed and fed and clothed and cared
For nearly twenty years
And all she gets is goodbye Ma
And the night times for her tears
She's got to be the loser in the end
She's got to be the loser in the end

So listen mothers everywhere
To just one mother's son
You'll get forgotten on the way
If you don't let them have thier fun
Forget regrets and just remember
It's not so long since you were young

You 're bound to be the loser in the end
You're bound to be the loser in the end
They'll choose their new shoes
That's not far to bend
You're Ma on whom they can always depend ooh ooh


Ogre battle

Now once upon a time
An old man told me a fable
When the piper is gone
And the soup is cold upon the table
And if the black crow flies
To find a new destination
That's the sign

Come tonight
Come to the other side
Come to ogre battle fight

He gives a great big cry
And he can swallow up the ocean
With mighty rongue he catches flies
And the palm of his hand incredible size
One great big eye
Has to focus in your direction
Now the battle is on
Yeah yeah yeah
Come tonight
Come to the other side
Come to ogre battle fight

Ah ah ah ah ah
The ogre men are still inside
The two way mirror mountain
You gotta keep down
Right out of sigh
You can't see in but they can see out
Keep a look out
The ogre men are coming out
From the two way mirror mountain
They're running up behind
And they're coming all about
Can't go east 'cause you gotta go south

Ogre men are going home
The great big fight is over
Bugle blow that trumpet cry
Ogre battle cries for evermore
You can come along
You can come along
Come to ogre battle


The Fairy Feller's Master Stroke

He's a fairy feller
Ah ah the hairy folk have shine
To see the feller crack a nut
A night's moon's time
To swing his axe he swears
As he climbs he dares
To deliver the master stroke

Ploughman wagoner will and types
Politician with senatorial pipe
He's a dilly dally oh
Pedagogue squinting wears a frown
And a satyr peers under lady's gown
He's a dirty fellow
What a dirty laddie oh

Tatterdemalton and the junketer
There is a thief and dragonfly trumpeter
He's my hero ah
Fairy dandy tickling the fancy
Of his lady friend
The nymph in yellow can we see the master stroke
Whate a quaere fellow
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
Soldier sailor tinker taylor ploughboy
Waiting to hear the sound
And the arch magician presides
He is the leader

Oberon and Titania watched by a harridan
Mab is the queen and there 's a good apothecary man
Came to say hello

Fairy dandy tickling the fancy
Of his lady friend
The nymph in yellow can we see the master stroke
Whate a quaere yellow

The oster stares with hands on his knees
Come on mister feller
Can act it open if you please


Nevermore

There is no living in my life anymore
The seas have gone dry
And the rain stopped falling
Please don't you cry anymore
Can't you see
Listen to the breeze
And whisper to me please
Don't send me to the path of nevermore

Even in the always down below
Where the rays of the sun
Were so warm and tender
Now haven't anything to grow
Can't you see ?
Why did you leave me ?
You sent me to the path of nevermore
When you say you didn't love me anymore
Oh oh nevermore nevermore


The March of the Black Queen

Do you mean it Do you mean it Do you mean it ?
Why don't you mea it ?
Why do I follow you
And where do I go ?
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
You've never seen nothing like it
No never in your life
Like going up to heaven
And then coming back alive
Let tell me you all about iy
Ooh give a little time to choose
Water babies singing in a lily pool delight
Blue powder monkeys praying in the dead of the night
Here comes the Black Queen poking in the pile
Take this take that bring them down to size

But them in the cellar with the naghty boys
Little sugar then a rub a baby oil
Black on black on every nail and toe
We've only begun begun
Make this make that keep making all that noise
Ooh the march of the Black Queen
Now I've got a belly full
You can be my honey chill

A voice from behind me reminds me
Spread out your little wings you are an angel
Remember to deliver with the speed of light
A little bit of love and joy
Everything you do bears a will
And a why and a ware fare
Each little bit of love and joy
In each and every man lies a man
And very soon he'll deceive and discover
But even till the end of his life
He'll bring a little love

ah ah ah ah ah
i reign with my left hand I rule with my right
I'm lord of all darkness I'm queen of the night
I've got the power now to do
The march of the Black Queen
My life is in your hand I'll fo and I 'll fie
I'll be a bad boy I'll be your bad boy
I'll do the march of the Black Queen

Ah ah ah ah ah

Walking true to style she's vulgar abuse and vill
The Black Queen tattoes all her pies
She bails and bakes
And she never dots her I's
La la la la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la

Forget your sing a long and your luulabies
Surrender to the city of the fireflies
Dance with devil in beat with the band
To hell with all you hand in hand
But now it's time to be gone
La la la la forever forever
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

Give out (you) the good and leave the bad evil cries

And with a smile
I'll take you to the seven seas of Rhye
