Royal Mugs with royal mugshots
Royal mugshots on plates
Royal mugshots on keyrings
In bargain store crates—
Royal mugshots on cushions
Royal mugs on your mat
Royal mugshots on face-masks
And endless old tat.
I wonder who’s buying
On this royal shopping spree—
As I’m not big on BS
You can bet it’s not me.

Royal mugshots on cushions
Royal mugs on your mat
Royal mugshots on face-masks
And endless old tat.

As I’m not big on BS
You can bet it’s not me.
