Long Live the Queen (Songbook Version) - Frank Turner

Written by：Frank Turner

I was sipping on a whiskey when I got the call

Yeah my friend Lex was lying in the hospital

She'd been pretty sick for about half a year

But it seemed like this time the end was drawing near

So dropped my plans and jumped the next London train

I found her laid up and in a lot of pain

Her eyes met mine and then I understood

That her weather forecast wasn't looking too good

So I sat and spun her stories for a little while

Tried to raise her mood and tried to raise a smile

But she silenced all my ramblings with a shake of her head

Drew me close and listen this is what she said now

You'll live to dance another day

It's just now you'll have to dance for the two of us

So stop looking so damn depressed

And sing with all your heart that the Queen is dead

Yeah she told me she was sick of all the hospital food

And of doctors distant relatives draining her blood

She said I know I'm dying but I'm not finished just yet

And I'm dying for a drink and for a cigarette

So we hatched a plan to book ourselves a cheap hotel

In the centre of the city and to raise some hell

Lay waste to all the clubs and then when everyone else is long asleep

Then we know we're good and done

You'll live to dance another day

It's just now you'll have to dance for the two of us

So stop looking so damn depressed

And sing with all your heart that the Queen is dead

And South London's not the same any more

The Queen is dead

And the last of the greats has finally gone to bed

Well I was working on some words when Sarah called me up

She said that Lex had gone asleep and wasn't waking up

And even though I knew that there was nothing to be done

I felt bad for not being there and now well she was gone

So I tried to think what Lex would want me to do

At times like this when I was feeling blue

So I gathered up some friends to spread the sad sad news

And we headed to the city for a drink or two

And we sang

We live to dance another day

It's just now we have to dance for one more of us

So stop looking so damn depressed

And sing with all our hearts

Long live the queen
