Текст песни Buckingham Blues - Live 1984 - "Weird Al" Yankovic

Hello, Boston!
Well, as you can probably tell, we're into the blues
And, uh, we're gonna do a little blues number for you
This is written by my great-granddaddy, uh
Who brought, uh, who really brought blues music to this country
You may have heard of him, the legendary Blind Lemon Yankovic, and, uh
Song about the royal couples called the "Buckingham Blues"
(One, two, three)

Gonna tell you a story 'bout Chuck and Diane
Couple British kids from the palace at Buckingham
Chuckie wants to grow up and be a polo star
And ride his little horsy all around the backyard, oh yeah
Those kids have really paid their dues
I said, "Hey, lawdy mama, they got them Buckingham blues"

Now Chuckie goes hunting and leaves Diane alone
So she fixes her hair, and she talks on the princess phone
Chuckie's still tryin' to figure out what his job's supposed to be
And Diane's the fashion leader of the aristocracy
I said, "Hey, Lady Di, tell me, where'd you get them shoes?
Oh, well, hey, nonny, nonny, looks like you got them Buckingham blues"

Aw, bein' heir to the throne, well, it must be awful hard
Gotta pose for pictures out on the front yard
And Lady Di, well, she must have it pretty rough
Gotta hang around the house all day makin' babies and stuff
Another game of croquet, and then they're off on a Caribbean cruise
Well, hey, bop-a-re-bop, they really got them Buckingham blues

Ah, tell the truth now, Jimmy, make it talk
Ah, he's got his mojo workin' full

Ah!
They don't serve no Twinkies with their afternoon tea
Never had a dinner made by Chef Boyardee
Bein' in the spotlight, that's a hard life to choose
Diane drops half a pound, it's on the six o'clock news, oh yeah
Those kids have really paid their dues
Oh, what a royal pain it is when you got them Buckingham blues
Yeah

Drum solo!
"Bermuda" Schwartz on the drums, ladies and gentlemen, thank you
