Send "Elizabeth My Dear" Ringtone to Cell

Tear me apart and boil my bones
I'll not rest till She's lost Her throne
My aim is true
My message is clear
It's curtains for you
Elizabeth my dear

    General Comment:This is a nice repost to the similarly throw-away little song "Her Majesty" on the Beatles "Abbey Road". That was also about Queen Elizabeth 2 but Ian Brown expresses a very different and much more appropriate sentiment than Paul McCartney did then.

    General Comment:For all Ian Brown , stone roses fans, a facebook group has been started in remembrance of this song, to see the end of the British monarchy, it is called 'down with the British monarchy- the three twelve movement'.
