Long Live the Queen (Songbook Version) - Frank Turner
Written by：Frank Turner
I was sipping on a whiskey when I got the call
Yeah my friend Lex was lying in the hospital
She'd been pretty sick for about half a year
But it seemed like this time the end was drawing near
So dropped my plans and jumped the next London train
I found her laid up and in a lot of pain
Her eyes met mine and then I understood
That her weather forecast wasn't looking too good
So I sat and spun her stories for a little while
Tried to raise her mood and tried to raise a smile
But she silenced all my ramblings with a shake of her head
Drew me close and listen this is what she said now

You'll live to dance another day

It's just now you'll have to dance for the two of us

So stop looking so damn depressed

And sing with all your heart that the Queen is dead
Yeah she told me she was sick of all the hospital food
And of doctors distant relatives draining her blood
She said I know I'm dying but I'm not finished just yet
And I'm dying for a drink and for a cigarette
So we hatched a plan to book ourselves a cheap hotel
In the centre of the city and to raise some hell
Lay waste to all the clubs and then when everyone else is long asleep
Then we know we're good and done

You'll live to dance another day

It's just now you'll have to dance for the two of us

So stop looking so damn depressed
And sing with all your heart that the Queen is dead

And South London's not the same any more

The Queen is dead

And the last of the greats has finally gone to bed

Well I was working on some words when Sarah called me up
She said that Lex had gone asleep and wasn't waking up

And even though I knew that there was nothing to be done

I felt bad for not being there and now well she was gone

So I tried to think what Lex would want me to do
At times like this when I was feeling blue

So I gathered up some friends to spread the sad sad news
And we headed to the city for a drink or two
And we sang

We live to dance another day

It's just now we have to dance for one more of us

So stop looking so damn depressed

And sing with all our hearts

Long live the queen
