[Intro] Now gather round, my noble friends I've listened long enough Tonight the Queen would like a word... [Verse 1] Arthur on the throne with another grand speech telling every soul what greatness can reach you conquered half the world, at least that's what you say but somebody should count how much wine you drank today Sir Ector tried, bless his tired heart keeping all this madness from flying apart now he's dreaming of sheep and a little green farm can't say I blame him, there's cause for alarm Cedric sings ballads nobody asked to hear every chicken bone flies whenever he's near calls it high art, calls himself refined the rest of Camelot seems less inclined [Chorus] I am the Queen of Camelot the only one who keeps this kingdom standing you drink, you fight, you scheme, you plot and somehow I'm still left commanding I am the Queen of Camelot the crown is getting heavy, understand me you break it all, then act shocked and somehow I'm still left commanding [Verse 2] Morgan wants the throne and she wears it well every smile she gives has another tale to tell Nimue arrived and nearly stopped the room whispering to Arthur while I quietly presume Elaine loves Lancelot, that's awkward enough except poor Lancelot prefers different stuff and somehow I'm expected not to lose my head while every week brings something stranger instead [Chorus] I am the Queen of Camelot the only one who keeps this kingdom standing you drink, you fight, you scheme, you plot and somehow I'm still left commanding [Verse 3] Morgause brought poison wrapped up in a grin talking about blood and the trouble we're in then Mordred arrived with his list of complaints and suddenly everyone turned into saints Merlin sees dragons in curtains and smoke half of his prophecies sound like a joke Galahad still thinks we're noble and pure frankly that's the strangest thing here for sure [Breakdown] Look around... look around... does anybody here see what I see? Because I see a kingdom held together by one exhausted queen... [Final Chorus] I am the Queen of Camelot the only one who keeps this kingdom standing you drink, you fight, you scheme, you plot and somehow I'm still left commanding I am the Queen of Camelot remember that before you try to crown me the day I stop holding this lot together Camelot comes crashing down around me [Outro] Court dismissed.
