If Ever I Had a Country : Liv and Lv
IF ever I had a country : LIV - LV
LIV
IF ever I had even at an Event Horizon a country
And if ever I were by self-arrogated Divine Right His or Her Imperial Majesty
I'd clamp in pig-irons every one of the Courtiers y compris Sir Walter Raleigh
For any offence thought not to be higher or lower than lèse majesté
And have them all dumped in the cramped Black Hole of Calcutta without pity
For plotting and planning some centuries hence the Art of Conning the People through Democratic Demon-o-kratie
That is, if ever I were by self-arrogated Divine Right His or Her Imperial Majesty
And even if I never ever had at any Event Horizon no country
LV
IF ever I had even at an Event Horizon a country
And if ever I were by self-arrogated Divine Right the Heir Apparent future Imperial Majesty
I'd sit on His Majesty's Crown of stolen diamonds opels moonstones and gilded finery
To warn all my Princes Princesses Lords Ladies Dukes and Marquis on bended knee
That I'd send them forthwith down pitch-black Black Hole for standing uppity on their assumed Noble Ancestry
And remind them all every one of us are descended sans exception from the Black African humanity Tree
That is, if ever I were by self-arrogated Divine Right the Heir Apparent future Imperial Majesty
And even if I never ever had at no Event Horizon a country
