Lily Rues the lyrics

13 November 2019, 19:59

Lily Allen says ‘Rule, Britannia!’ song should ‘go in the bin’ because of its problematic lyrics | The Independent

Writing “Sorry, what?” on her Instagram story, the singer singled out the following lyrics: “Britons never, never, never shall be slaves. The nations, not so blest as thee, must in their turn, to tyrants fall, while thou shalt flourish, shalt flourish great and free, the dread and envy of them all.” After the anthem featured in many of the Remembrance Day services last weekend, Allen wrote: “I think we should not sing this song anymore.”

has she listened to her songs or read her lyrics?

Maybe he's arabic. Maybe he likes the word. I do.

Ashlar - there's another one of my favourites.

She's a singing bint who's so rough she's got a flange like a trampled bat. Allegedly.

Instagram? Dunno, wife uses it. Doesn't mean it's any good though.

Is that better or worse than a wizard's sleeve?

I know it is better than a Cathedral f4nny - as in "I have never played an organ in such a big cathedral f4nny before".
