"So, I thought
I'd have a bit of a day out
give these old bones an airing,
only so much sitting and staring
at a tv one can do without despairing.
Well, it seems
there was something going down..
Walked past Westminster Abbey
and they were fitting a crown.
The weather was atrocious,
rainwater really weighs down this gown,
but it was nice to go out in that London town"
"Yes, we know your lordship,
your photo is posted
over every newspaper website,
on various internet clips.
Not very inconspicuous
We are supposed
to keep a low profile,
keep to the shadows,
but there you are,
walking tall
scythe in hand
in view of all"
"Oh bugger"
"Indeed, your lordship indeed"
"Let's hope the higher ups don't read
the tabloid news feeds"
"On the plus side, I did grab a takeaway"
