[Chorus]
With pride we march, in scarlet and gold,
The Queen's own guard, brave and bold.
Through changing times, our spirit's strong,
We stand for duty, righting wrong. 
The Queen's Guard, forever true,
Protecting our land, me and you.

[Verse 2]
The bearskin tall, a symbol of might,
Standing steadfast, day and night.
At Buckingham Palace, a watchful eye,
Protecting the Monarch, beneath the sky.
In ceremonial splendor, our presence known,
A timeless tradition, proudly shown. 
The changing of the guard, a spectacle grand,
A link to the past, across the land.

[Verse 3]
But duty calls beyond the palace walls,
Beyond the parades, beyond the halls.
In modern conflicts, a different fight,
Against shadows lurking, day and night.
International terror, a global threat,
The Coldstream Guards, they haven't met
A challenge yet they couldn't face,
With courage and honor, leaving not a trace
Of doubt or fear, their hearts ablaze,
Protecting our freedom in countless ways.

[Bridge]
From ancient battles, to modern strife,
The Coldstream Guards, defending life.
A legacy forged in fire and steel,
A bond unbreakable, forever real.

[Guitar Solo -  A powerful, soaring solo reflecting both the ceremonial grandeur and the fierce determination of the Guards]

[Outro]
The Queen's Guard… forever…  [fades out with a final drum beat]

[Verse 1] From Coldstream town, a legend born, Through centuries of strife, a proud new morn. The Coldstream Guards, a name revered, In history's pages, their valor declared. From battlefield's fury, to palace's grace, Their duty unwavering, time cannot erase. [Chorus] With pride we march, in scarlet and gold, The Queen's own guard, brave and bold. Through changing times, our spirit's strong, We stand for duty, righting wrong. The Queen's Guard, forever true, Protecting our land, me and you. [Verse 2] The bearskin tall, a symbol of might, Standing steadfast, day and night. At Buckingham Palace, a watchful eye, Protecting the Monarch, beneath the sky. In ceremonial splendor, our presence known, A timeless tradition, proudly shown. The changing of the guard, a spectacle grand, A link to the past, across the land. [Verse 3] But duty calls beyond the palace walls, Beyond the parades, beyond the halls. In modern conflicts, a different fight, Against shadows lurking, day and night. International terror, a global threat, The Coldstream Guards, they haven't met A challenge yet they couldn't face, With courage and honor, leaving not a trace Of doubt or fear, their hearts ablaze, Protecting our freedom in countless ways. [Chorus] With pride we march, in scarlet and gold, The Queen's own guard, brave and bold. Through changing times, our spirit's strong, We stand for duty, righting wrong. The Queen's Guard, forever true, Protecting our land, me and you. [Bridge] From ancient battles, to modern strife, The Coldstream Guards, defending life. A legacy forged in fire and steel, A bond unbreakable, forever real.
