Vox Populi (Vivat Regina) By Lee Skinner (original song)

It has loads of titles including = Vox populi, vivat regina, long live the queen, the queens people and old curiosity shop.



They say you stole the candles light
Even though you lit the flame
You bought the matches from a small shop
And you hid them from the rain
They bound you up and gagged you
You swung from the knowledge tree
They carved your name into it's skin and all the blood ran free...
O'i Vey, Vox populi
O'i Vey, Vox populi
Vivat regina, Vivat regina
Vivat regina, Vivat regina
They sell ideas a plenty
And copper coins from 1853
"Would you like your purchase gift wrapped sir?"
This candle wick comes for free
They bound you up and gagged you
You swung from the knowledge tree
Your name was crudely worn away
He won't bow to their queen
O'i Vey, Vox populi
O'i Vey, Vox populi
Vivat regina, Vivat regina
Vivat regina, Vivat regina
Long live the queen
Oh god the voices of the people
A likeness of the demons on the steeple
Welcome to a sinners town
Welcome to a sinners town
