lyrics

LOVE IN THE TIME OF CORONA

I went for my Sunday walk along the Thames
Silent as the midnight hour rings of Big Ben
Where’s everybody gone?
It’s been like this for far too long

So I shouted ‘cross the river hey “I’m Frank Turner”
I usually meet the fans, it’s a good little earner
There was no-one comin’ runnin’ for an autograph
That’s when I knew we strayed right from the paff

Oh London (and the world) let’s get it together
Don’t you worry, Boris will make it better
Oh London (and the world) let’s get it together
It’s you and me, we’re meant to be. I’ll play folk-punk forever and eva

So I got the Jubilee line to see Phantom at the West End
The theatre was shut, so I won’t be coming back again
And my favourite restaurant for scallops was closed
It started to feel like a forn in the English rose, oh no
Huzzah for me I stocked up on hand sanitiser
Sold it for a hundred quid, I bought it for a fiver
A punk’s gotta make a livin’
An’ ol’ Frankie keeps on givin

Oh London, and other countries get it together
Don’t you worry, her majesty will make it better
Oh London, and the third world get it together
I’d rather you than me, surely you must agree.
Keep your cough away from me.
Cause you know that I’m more clever

God save the queen
She’s the only girl I need
God save the queen
She’s the only girl for me
My blood is blue yes, it’s true
Do you believe in me?
Because I believe in you
God save the queen
She’s the only girl for me

Now I’m sitting around in my four-bedroom flat
Just strumming my guitar in my tails and my top hat
I turned on the telly to tune into your speech
And although you’re so close you’re still so out of reach
Your words brought me hope but it still broke my heart
It reminded me isolation is tearing us apart
I put a twenty under my pillow so I can feel your face so close
Cause you know you’re my virus and my heart is your host

And God save the queen
God save the Queen

God save the Queen
She’s a wonderful human being
God save the Queen

God save the queen
She’s the only girl I need
God save the queen
She’s the only girl for me
Got my London eye on you
Yes I do
You’re the only royal girl who will pull me through woah
God save the queen
You’re the only girl for me

Fuck this quarantine
Cause you are still my queen
Yeah fuck this quarantine
You’re still my valentine
Fuck this quarantin
It’s such a mess I’m in
Yeah fuck this quarantee
I love my majesty!
