Sedition
Once we had a naughty King
Who did a lot of silly things
And made a lot of people feel bad,
In fact he was such a bad chap
I could say quite simply that
He was the worst King that we’d ever had!
So I wrote to all the land
And spoke to every willing man
Telling all to rise up and take arms
Against the King of silly things
But when my words and my writings
Reached his ears he was rather alarmed…
And so he sent his soldiers out
To stop me for the King did shout
“This scallywag is guilty of sedition!”
And now it is true of my head
It now lives somewhere else instead
And on his wall makes quite a nice addition.
Which is ironic I would think
Were my brain not out of sync
With life I would consider it a laugh,
For in Latin “seditio”
Means separation don’t you know
And here I am so not quite cut in half!
