Horrible Histories – The 4 Georges: Born 2 Rule lyrics
George I:
I took the throne of England
Just ’cause I was protestant
A German prince whose English stank,
King George number one
George II:
I like to argue, now that’s clear
Especially with my father here
And when he died of diarrhoea
I fought with my son
George III:
I broke records with my sixty year reign
George VI:
And I broke the scales with my giant frame
all:
Born to rule over you
King George four, three, one and two
You had to do what we told you to
Just because our blood was blue
George I:
I was a hunk, girls adored me
Ladies all swooned before me
They would do anything for me
Or I’d have their husbands killed
George II:
Had a war with Prince Charles Bonnie
George III:
Everyone said that I was f-f-funny
George IV:
I spent everyone’s money
All:
Our subjects were not thrilled
George I:
I was the sad one,
George II:
I was the bad one
George III
I was the mad one,
George IV:
and I was the fat one
All:
We were born to rule over you
Georges one, three, four and two
England’s kings, though we were German too
Him, then him, then me, then you
(We were born)Born to rule over you(born 2 rule)
George I:
Gorged on fruit then I died on the loo
ALL:
People hated us, and we hated them too
Born to rule over you
Born to rule over you
George III:
Me I was as batty as a bonkers kangaroo
George IV:
Me I would have been more at home in a zoo
And now, now our song is through.
Yeah…
Georges
George III:
Banana
