Testo Royal Tea - Benjamin Zephaniah

Testo della canzone Royal Tea (Benjamin Zephaniah), tratta dall'album Funky Turkeys

I went to Buckingham Palace today

To see where the Queen and her family stay

I went to Buckingham Palace today

To see the Queen's horses and men

The Queen had gone shopping, a friend let us in

A very big chap with a very big grin

He put all the money I had in a tin

Security checked me and then...

He showed me a picture, three hundred years old

Kept in a frame made of valuable gold

I told him I had one just like it indoors

And that I may sell it to help a good cause

A chandelier he said was priceless was nice

I said, "My one's better and it has a price!"

I went in a big room and saw the big throne

Just like the one that my mum has at home

I saw carpets and walls that were not for sale

I met the man who sorts out Royal Mail

I went in the room where the Queen has her balls

And in there I saw some more carpets and walls

On high polished floors I had a good slide

I got a good telling off from the guide

That very big chap with that very big grin

Now looked even bigger and was not smiling

I said in his ear that I needed to

Pay a quick visit to the Royal loo

It took fifteen minutes to get myself there

Upon the loo door it said, "Kilroy was here"

Cameras filmed me on return to reception

I signed autographs for my royal connections

I left a note for the Queen saying she can

Visit me anytime she's in East Ham

I went to Buckingham Palace today

To see where the Queen and her family stay

I went to Buckingham Palace today

To see royal things old and new

It cost me eight fifty, but no need to worry

If you visit me you don't need any money

There's no OBEs but there's fresh tea with honey

And I can take photos of you!
