Having Fun With Henry

O' what is a peasants role?  
 
to pay the government toll  
wake in the morning to harvest  
the wheat, to grovel and scrape  
at royalties feet...that is a peasants role  
 
O' what is a king to do?  
 
I stepped in rather large poo  
you there, peasant remove your cloak  
to clean away this stinky goo  
it has soiled the royal shoe  
 
now I don't mean to boast  
but as king you must toast  
for every peasant does see  
the greatness that is me King Henry  
 
the first he was first he was a bounder  
the second was a bit wild  
the third made subjects snore  
for the fourth had plots galore
the fifth fought the French at Agencore  
the sixth he was a child  
Henry the vii he was bore  
 
O' peasants bow down to me
I'm Henry number eight...ain't I great
