Off With Their Heads

from We're All Mad Here by Ian Rutherford

/

lyrics

Watch me leading my procession
Never showing my aggression
Gracious in benign oppression
Graceful in my self-possession!

Roses are white but should be red?
Off with his head!
Who is that child defending him?
Off with her head!

Surely croquet is what I’m craving
After spending all day slaving
My flamingo’s misbehaving
It’s enough to send me raving.

Play too well, you’ll make me shout
“Off with his head!”
Watch me cheat and stamp about.
‘Off with her head!’

‘A head with no body? Off with its head!’

It’s a sight that’s rather curious
Just enough to make me furious
An excuse that’s simply spurious
Time for something quite injurious

A cat with no body?
Off with its head!
Don’t be a noddy –
Off with its head!
You heard what I said:
Off with its head!
