• George IV: Couldn't Stand My Wife

G IV: I'm George the Fourth - The Regent King,
Which means I was just ‘standing in’…
Acting king because my dad,
George the Third, had gone barking mad!

G III: Banana!!!

G IV: Great palaces I did design –
Buckingham was one of mine.
Art and Fashion - I so rated.

G III: And wives?

G IV: … That’s more complicated…
Actresses and Duchesses -
The great loves of my life.
I loved more girls than I ate pies,
But I couldn’t stand my wife!

G III: He couldn’t stand his wife!

G IV: Go away!

G IV: I only married Queen Caroline
When my debts began to climb,
Cos if I agreed to tie the knot

G III: I said I’d pay off the lot!

G IV: But the wedding caused all sorts of strife
Because I already had a wife

G III: A divorced catholic?!

G IV: dad did sigh…
But the mad old goat just wouldn’t die!

G III: Still here!
Oooh – spoke too soon.

G IV: At last - I can go solo!!
As true king my reign began!
…Though I was now older than your nan.
And as the ruler of our nation,
I banned my wife from my coronation.
And knowing now that I did hate her,
She promptly died just three weeks later.
But all those pies that I got through
Meant ten years later I died too!

G III: … Hello – Have we met?
I’m a kangaroo!

G IV: Actresses and Duchesses -
The great loves of my life.
I loved more girls than I ate pies,
But I couldn’t stand my wife!
I had just ten years on the throne
Do you remember that?
No – all that you remember is…
I was really fat…
