LYRICS
When I was a little girl,
And you were a little boy,
And England was an empire.
England was an empire.
Daddy didn’t like me being cold,
And mummy didn’t like it when I told.
They hid it for their empire.
They hid it for their empire.
Father didn’t want you speaking out,
For how would he explain to king and crown?
When heaven was an empire.
When heaven was an empire.
When I was a little girl,
And you were a little boy,
Nothing was an empire.
Nothing was an empire.
