(A minor) Queen Victori (A major) a,
(E major) My father and all (F major) his tobacco loved you,
I love you (D minor) too in all your (A minor) forms,
(A major) (A minor)
(E major) The slim and lovely virgin floating
(F major) among German beer,
(A minor) The mean gov (A major) erness of the
huge pink (A minor) maps,
The (F major) solitary mourner of a
(C major) prince. (E major) (A major)
(A minor) Queen Vic
Verse 2
(F major) tori (A minor) a,
I (F major) am cold and rainy,
I am (A minor) dirty as a glass roof
in a train (G major) station,
(D minor) I feel like an empty cast iron (F major) exhibition,
(A minor)
(F major) I want ornaments on everything,
Because my love, (E major)
(F major) she (C major) gone with (B flat#) other boys. (E major) (A major)

Verse 3
under (D minor)
the white (F major) lace,
Will you (A minor) be short with her,
will you make her (F major) read those little (D minor) Bibles,
(F major) (E major) Will you spank (C major) her
with a mechanical (G major) corset.
(E major) I want her (A minor) pure as power,
I (F major) want her skin slightly musty with petticoats
Will you wash (E major) the easy bidet
out of her head? (A major)
Verse 4
(A minor) Queen (F major) Victori (A minor) a,
(E major) I'm not much (F major) nourished
by modern (A minor) love,
Will you (C major) come into (G major) my life
(F major) With your sorrow (D minor) and your (E major) black carriages,
(A minor)
(E major) And your perfect
Memories. (A major)
(A minor) Queen Vic (F major) tori
Verse 5
(E major) a, (A minor) (F major)
The Twentieth (E major) Century (D minor)
belongs to you and (A minor) me.
(E major) Let us be (C major) two severe giants (E major) not
less lonely for our (A minor) partnership,
Who dis (F major) color test tubes in the
(A minor) halls of (E major) Science,
Who turn up un (C major) welcome
at every (G major) World's Fair,
Heavy with pro (A minor) verbs and corrections,
(G major) (A minor) Con fusing (A major) the star-
(A minor) dazed tourists
(F major) With our incomparable sense of (E major) loss.
