About Time - In King Charles Own Words

About time, I've paid my dues I've crossed the line, This moment I thought would never come, Is in my grasp, the deed now done. Don't get me wrong, I loved my Mum, But all that passed would surely stun Even a saint or the Lord above, So tiring being an aimless dove. Now I'm ready to take the world by storm, Show them my worth, no longer act forlorn, The wife I always wanted by my side, I can finally get into my Kingly stride. The Little niggle that remains, Harry's willful character that pains, I've summoned experts to hear what they might say To finally obtain a sample of his mysterious DNA. I'm not claiming he's not mine, But as Americans would shout, ‘I wouldn't bet a dime’, Thank goodness I've got my other boy, A stand-up chap that brings me nothing but pure joy. As to Camilla, my soulmate from the start, From whom they never could tear me far apart, She now stands by me as my Queen, You saw me beam with joy like a lovestruck teen. Don't get me wrong, I'm painfully aware my reign may not be long, But while I'm here, I plan to make my mark, Understanding this job is no cakewalk in the park. I've got the Aussies wanting to jump ship. The Canadians on their own perennial trip, The Scots plotting for a Clansman King, And Parliament seeking me do next to nothing. Yet I've got a plan, Something that will surely stun, Become a multimedia star, And thus take them all across the bar. I can jig, dance and sing, Fly helicopters, do pretty much of anything, Plant trees, help save our World How can all of this be thought absurd. Politicians just blow smoke, Send their countries near flat broke, I instead bring Billions in Collecting smiles from wheresoever I have been. That said let me enjoy my moment in the sun, Reflecting on all that's been and done, My resolve is firm, my duty clear, My life's work is aimed at all, both far and near. So rest easy, enjoy the ride, Sailing smoothly on a flowing tide, Over a thousand years in the making My oath is one of giving and not taking.
