Songtexte Prince Charles - Christine Lavin

I never really knew him
But I was hoping that we might meet
I knew I'd find him very witty
I hoped he'd find me sweet
But somebody beat me to him
Ruined all my plans
Some little conniving wench
Who went and stole my man

Oh Charles, Prince Charles
Can you hear my heart break?
Can you hear me telling you
Marrying her is a big mistake?
Oh Charles, my Charles
When you proposed she was just nineteen
Hey, don't you think that's a little young
To be making her England's future queen, huh?

Oh yes, I know she's pretty (Eh)
Yes, I know she's rich (Big deal)
But I read in the National Enquirer
Lady Diana is a witch
I was very shocked to read
But hey, it must be true
'Cause there hasn't been anything on 60 Minutes
About her wanting to sue

Oh Charles, my Charles
You have made such a bad mistake
In the bosoms of girls all over the world
Hearts keep going break, break, break
Oh Charles, my Charles
She's not even 24 years old yet
Now think of all the eligible women in the world
That you still haven't met

Oh maybe you got panicky
Thinking you were losing your looks
But confidentially, Chuck, you got no looks to lose
Or maybe you are the kind of cad
Who likes to drive us women mad
Knowing now we all have the
"I'm never gonna get to be the future Queen of England" blues

Charles, Prince Charles
Do you have a last name?
I was gonna ask you that on our first date
Forget it, things have changed
Oh Charles, my Charles
Any girl looks good when she's nineteen
But think about her thirty years from now
When she's an old and ugly queen
Ooh, take a look at your mother, boy
And you'll know what I mean
