the white album
Spike counters, brilliantly, with Patrick White. To which Alex replies:
And for that matter, Jack White:
(Uptempo)
Oh well, they gonna make me king
Oh well they gonna make me king now
I pulled a sword out of a thing
They made me kiss the bishop’s ring
And now they gonna make me king nowSo Lance is sleepin’ with the queen
My Lance is sleepin’ with the queen now
And though I think it kind of mean
I just don’t wanna make a scene
Cause I do love my wife the queen nowI wish that I could talk to Merlin
I wish that I could talk to Merlin
The night is dark, the world is whirlin’
My son the traitor’s flag’s unfurlin’
And I could really use you, Merlin
Me, I am working on Gilbert White’s The Natural History of Melbourne.
