|
Tonight is her night, and the city holds is breath, |
|
Caught twixt life and death, as she rolls in from the suburbs, |
|
The garrison flees and the city will burn. |
|
Corinna rides like Boadicea tonight. |
|
London town trembles at the sight. |
|
Because tonight is her night. |
|
And the youth course through the streets to lay down at her feet, |
|
And she runs a regal eye to choose who lives and decide who dies. |
|
Corinna rides like Boadicea tonight. |
|
The fearful crowds part ways without a fight. |
|
Corinna rides like Boadicea tonight. |
|
London town trembles at the sight. |
|
She keeps her counsel, smiles when she speaks now, from ear to ear. |
|
She's getting married, or so they tell me, when the spring is here. |
|
She hums a tune from a song she knows from warm summers past, |
|
A song that was sung by kids around campfires in the quiet southwest. |
