First single from the forthcoming album - Eternity Pool

lyrics

Queen of England - the Franklyns

I wanna go where the kingdom reigns
Be looking out through the windowpanes
And walk around like I’m really tall
Let my eyes drift off the ball
Always be on my holidays
Umbrella’d cocktails on silver trays
I wanna make everybody laugh
Go home and soak in a nice hot bath
I wanna be...

Queen of England, Queen of England, yeah

Wanna ride through a fountained square
And wave to crowds that are waiting there
I’ll take the time just to look around
May spy my picture in the underground
I wanna have everything there is
From chocolate pancakes to ambergris
I wanna find there’s a place to be
Where people love someone just like me
I wanna be...

Queen of England, Queen of England, yeah
I really wanna be
Queen of England, Queen of England, yeah

I wanna know what I need to learn
To have discussions with the taciturn
I want my bark to exceed my bite
And choose which days will be dark, which bright
I wanna be known around the place
And need a smile fixed upon my face
I wanna know how it feels to live
When other people always have to give
I wanna be...

Queen of England, Queen of England, yeah
I really wanna be
Queen of England, Queen of England, yeah

I really want that job, I just know I would thrive
It might be just a fiction but I’d bring it alive
I really wanna take big roles in those scenes
I wanna have a stake in everything that it means
I wanna be the Queen that sister needs to survive

Yeah
Wo oh

Everywhere that we go
Everybody would know
And I’d be rarin’ to go
Cos everywhere that we go yeah
Everybody would know

I’m the Queen of England
