| [00:08.53] |
Aye, the footmen are frantic in their indignation, |
| [00:11.29] |
|
| [00:13.28] |
You see, "The Queen's took a taxi herself to the station!" |
| [00:16.90] |
|
| [00:17.91] |
Where the porters, surprised by her lack of Royal baggage, |
| [00:21.15] |
|
| [00:22.27] |
Bustle her and three corgis to the rear of the carriage, |
| [00:26.26] |
|
| [00:26.95] |
For the train it is crammed with all Europe's nobility, |
| [00:30.00] |
|
| [00:31.31] |
And there's none of them famous for their compatibility. |
| [00:34.63] |
|
| [00:35.62] |
There's a fight over seats, "I beg pardon Your Grace, |
| [00:39.37] |
|
| [00:39.93] |
But you'll find that one's mine, so get back in yr place!" |
| [00:43.66] |
|
| [00:45.15] |
"Aye, but where are they going?" All the porters debate, |
| [00:48.77] |
|
| [00:50.02] |
"Why they're going to Newcastle and they daresn't be late, |
| [00:53.64] |
|
| [00:54.45] |
For they're launching a boat on the Tyne at high tide, |
| [00:57.63] |
|
| [00:58.76] |
And they've come from all over, from far and from wide." |
| [01:02.81] |
|
| [01:03.55] |
There's the old Dalai Lama, aye and the Pontiff of Rome, |
| [01:07.28] |
|
| [01:07.97] |
Every palace in Europe, and there's nay bugger home. |
| [01:11.35] |
|
| [01:12.22] |
There's the Duchess of Cornwall and the loyal Prince of Wales, |
| [01:16.03] |
|
| [01:17.03] |
Looking crushed and uncomfortable in his top hat and tails. |
| [01:21.26] |
"Why, they haven't got tickets," "Come now, it's just a detail, |
| [01:25.20] |
|
| [01:25.88] |
There was no time to purchase and one simply has to prevail, |
| [01:29.20] |
|
| [01:30.01] |
For we'll get to the shipyards or we'll end up in jail!" |
| [01:34.62] |
When the last ship sails. |
| [01:37.87] |
|
| [01:39.11] |
Oh the roar of the chains and the cracking of timbers, |
| [01:44.23] |
|
| [01:44.98] |
The noise at the end of the world in your ears, |
| [01:48.28] |
|
| [01:49.16] |
As a mountain of steel makes its way to the sea, |
| [01:52.85] |
|
| [01:53.53] |
And the last ship sails. |
| [01:56.58] |
|
| [01:57.40] |
And whatever you'd promised, whatever you've done, |
| [02:02.08] |
|
| [02:02.70] |
And whatever the station in life you've become. |
| [02:07.01] |
In the name of the Father, in the name of the Son, |
| [02:11.38] |
And no matter the weave of this life that you've spun, |
| [02:15.93] |
On the Earth or in Heaven or under the Sun, |
| [02:19.61] |
|
| [02:20.23] |
When the last ship sails. |
| [02:23.17] |
|
| [02:24.60] |
Oh the roar of the chains and the cracking of timbers, |
| [02:29.35] |
|
| [02:30.34] |
The noise at the end of the world in your ears, |
| [02:33.97] |
|
| [02:34.65] |
As a mountain of steel makes its way to the sea, |
| [02:38.41] |
|
| [02:39.04] |
And the last ship sails. |
