The Coronation.

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. Apr 2001.

[Nan] Just to dream of it is delightful!
What a sight to see!

All the celebration
of the Coronation!

[Princess] In the cream of it,
as is rightful,
You will notice Me!

I shall take my station
at The Coronation!

[Rajah] I'd be out of it in a minute,
But I have to go,

I've an invitation,
to the Coronation!

[Sophie] Not a doubt of it,
I'll be in it,
whether asked or not!

[Barry] Getting an ovation
at the Coronation!

[All] Tra, la, la, la, la,
la, la, la, la, la, la!
Ha, ha, ha, ha!

Hip, Hooray! for Coronation day!
When all the world
will come from far around!

[Princess] Then every wish will have success!
[Douglas] and every girl a brand new dress!

[Nan] We'll go to the fancy ball or play!
[Barry] and take what we like and never pay!

[Sophie] The City will give the children treats!
[Rajah] And probably take up all the streets!
[All] When the King comes to London to be crowned!

[Princess] Though I'm foreign,
it's most entrancing,
even to behold,

In anticipation
all The Coronation!

[Nan] Peers in coronets,
horses prancing,
soldiers red and gold,

for our preservation,
at the Coronation!

[Sophie] Ladies bodices sewn with rubies,
[Barry] Can't you see them flash?

Quite a corruscation
at The Coronation!

[Rajah] Fair as goddesses to the boobies
who provide the cash,

For their decoration
at the Coronation!

[All] Tra, la, la, la, la,
la, la, la, la, la, la!
Ha, ha, ha, ha!

Hip, Hooray! for Coronation day!
When all the world
will come from far around!

[Nan] We'll drive in the Row on motor cars,
[Douglas] There won't be a closing time for bars!

[Princess] The law of the land for once we'll shelve,
[Rajah] And dare to be hungry after twelve!

[Sophie] Then every day the sun will shine,
[Barry] The Twopenny Tube will run with wine,
[All] When the King comes to London to be crowned!

[They all dance!]
