Hail to the King All mighty and strong Hail to the Queen Who sings a great song. King asks for a song The Queen doesn't bare Every night to bed To create a new heir. Weeks speed by And still nothing yet The King is now nervous The Queen's tears are wept. The Queen's clothes are shed As she lay with her King They tumble all night As fertility sings. Nine months later A baby is born But not the right gender So the baby is mourned. The Queen has failed Her dazzeling King And now it's the blade On her neck that must sing.

Prince
Hail to the King All mighty and strong Hail to the Queen Who sings a great song. King asks for a song The Queen doesn't bare Every night to bed To create a new heir. Weeks speed by And still nothing yet The King is now nervous The Queen's tears are wept. The Queen's clothes are shed As she lay with her King They tumble all night As fertility sings. Nine months later A baby is born But not the right gender So the baby is mourned. The Queen has failed Her dazzeling King And now it's the blade On her neck that must sing.
I read somewhere that a King would often execute a Queen who couldn't bare a son or child in the middle ages. I wrote this when I was in grade 11.
