Lyrics
Men who shoot their horses
Are the same men who would like to kiss your hand
They're waiting in the ballrooms, and the bedrooms, and the, and the
Men who shoot their horses
Are the same men who would go and shoot a friend
Salve Regina, Elizabeth Regina
The Virgin Queen
The Virgin Queen
The Virgin Queen
Headless mother, heartless father
Ghosts of the yes man past and future
In the bedroom
You must suture up that hole
Where the babies come from
England–oh–England
Never forsake me
Won’t you take me to have and to hold
I may be a cruel, crude woman
But in the distance I hear Shakespeare mumbling
"Whether ‘tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of
Troubled, troubled, troubles"
England, England
Never forsake me
Won't you take me to have and to hold
I can hear the voices rising
The Virgin Queen
The Virgin Queen
The Virgin Queen
The Virgin Queen
In the end, you try to rule
As best as you can
But the crown gets cold
And mind gets old
And all the gold
Could invite our souls
To a place to come home to
In the end, it's just a bed
And the things we made
Have begun to fade
On the distant shores new voices are rising
The Virgin Queen
The Virgin Queen
