Horrible Histories - The 4 Georges: Born 2 Rule lyrics

rate me

I took the throne of England

Just 'cause I was protestant

A German prince whose English stank,

King George number one

I like to argue, now that's clear

Especially with my father here

And when he died of diarrhoea

I fought with my son

I broke records with my sixty year reign

And I broke the scales with my giant frame

We were 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

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

Had a war with Prince Charles Bonny

Everyone said that I was f-f-funny

I spent everyone's money

Our subjects were not thrilled

I was the sad one, and I was the bad one

I was the mad one, and I was the fat one

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

Born to rule over you

Gorged on fruit then I died on the loo

People hated us, and we hated them too

Born to rule over you

Born to rule over you

Me I was as batty as a bonkers kangaroo

Me I would have been more at home in a zoo

And now, now our song is through.
