"Royal Wedding" - A Rebel Song from 1922

SMOKE HO
The Royal Wedding.

Sing a song of slobber,
—A nation on its knees      
Rapturously worshipping  
It's pigmy royalties;

Happy in the dust do most
Obsequiously squirm,
Glad to be in crawlsome glee
Full brother to the worm.

Sing, a song of manhood,  
Of days that yet shall be,
When man to fellow man no more
Shall bend the supplicant knee.  

When crowns and thrones and sceptres  
On the scrap heap shall be cast,  
And brotherhood, by all acclaimed,
Shall rule the world at last.
