The dust has now settled 
Charles becomes King 
we're glued to the telly
watching changes begin

Emotions are high
the Queen was part of our lives
It was all down to her
the monarchy survived

She was the captain
of a precarious ship
she's dealt with the mishaps 
and....ego trips

She did this so calmly 
professional to the end 
she's left this to Charles
to carry on the trend

It's the end of an era
her duties now done
King Charles 111
doesn't yet roll off the tongue 

Yes, they are privileged 
the price is …their soul
but would you want to live
In a goldfish bowl?
