The Ghost of the Chapel Royal
This soul has not yet been taken
Could I request it back at once gratefully
The sky's so blue
It's an ocean
An ocean with all sorts of life in it
But me
Why did you have to go away?
Why did you have to go away?
Mother, you'd scream at the king
Like he's a servant from day one
And you created a hole in his solid stability
You knocked him clear off his limestone rocker
Now he has left all this kingdom to me
And I'm so afraid to rule alone
Now this kingdom, your closet, I'm locked in
Is now my home
Daddy, why suicide?
Why couldn't you just cry instead?
Daddy, why suicide?
Why couldn't you just cry instead?
Daddy, why suicide?
Why couldn't you just cry instead?
Could I request it back at once gratefully
The sky's so blue
It's an ocean
An ocean with all sorts of life in it
But me
Why did you have to go away?
Why did you have to go away?
Mother, you'd scream at the king
Like he's a servant from day one
And you created a hole in his solid stability
You knocked him clear off his limestone rocker
Now he has left all this kingdom to me
And I'm so afraid to rule alone
Now this kingdom, your closet, I'm locked in
Is now my home
Daddy, why suicide?
Why couldn't you just cry instead?
Daddy, why suicide?
Why couldn't you just cry instead?
Daddy, why suicide?
Why couldn't you just cry instead?
