Loudon Wainwright III
Kings and Queens (Live)
I'm as old as the King of Sweden
I can drink in Connecticut
You're a year older than the Princess Anne
I don't mean it as an unkind cut
I'll never catch King Hailie Selassie
And you'll never catch Princess Grace
No monarchy was bequeathed to we
But I'm a-hoping that we'll find our place, oh yeah

At times I feel like a Tutankhamen
Won't you be my Nefertiti tonight?
Stock up on them tana leaves
'Cause the mummy's got to see the light
Ah, Napoleon had his Josephine
And Pocahontas had her Captain Smith
Queen Isabella, Ferdinand was her fella
But on Columbus she bestowed her gift

I am the king of the hully gully
And you are the queen of slop
Doing the hand-jive on the telly
Let's go to the hop
Oh baby, I'm as old as the King of Sweden
I can drink in Connecticut
You're a year older than the Princess Anne
I don't mean it as an unkind cut
