Regicide

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Paparazzi
chasing The Blonde
Paparazzi
ever too fond

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Enjoying the chase
in yer face
don’t know their place
need some space

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 But Royalty
is the light that draws them in
like moths on a mission, with altruistic ambition
flashbulbs pop, and headlines then begin
Dodi is dead and Diana his dormant twin
suddenly the pictures are tasteless and end up in the bin
these are harsh memories, reliving it is like a sin …

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 The same night on the tv schedules
but actually eons apart
a re-grouped Nation, once again takes heart
as a dethroned majestic monarch
similarly oft pursued
makes light of a footballing fraternity feud
and has his divided compatriots glued
to a scriptwriter’s dream, too fantastic even to be autocued …
