Horrible Histories - George IV Solo Lyrics
I'm George IV, the regent kingWhich means I was just standing inActing king because my dadGeorge III had gone barking mad! (Banana) Great palaces, I did designBuckingham was one of mineArt and fashion, I so ratedAnd wives? That's more complicated! Actresses and duchessesThe great loves of my lifeI loved more girls than I ate piesBut I couldn't stand my wife(He couldn't stand his wife! Go away! )I only married Queen CarolineWhen my debts began to climb'Cause if I agreed to tie the knotI said I'd pay off the lot! But the wedding caused all sorts of strife'Cause I already had a wifeA divorced Catholic? Dad did sighBut the mad old goat just wouldn't die! (Still here! Oh, spoke too soon! At last, I can go solo! )As true king, my reign beganThough I was now older than your nanAnd as the ruler of our nationI banned my wife from my coronationAnd knowing now that I did hate herShe promptly died just three weeks laterBut all those pies that I got throughMeant ten years later, I died too! (Hello, have we met? I'm a kangaroo! )Actresses, duchessesThe great loves of my lifeI loved more girls than I ate piesBut I couldn't stand my wifeI had just ten years on the throneDo you remember that?No, all that you remember is... I was really fat!
