Once a Dame Always a Dame

EEeeee Lass it were a bugger
That sword she swished so near
It nearly cut me nose off
and chopped me bloody ear.
Me legs jus` went to Jelly
as I curtsyed to the Queen
I thought that I would wake up
From a very funny dream.
It was a very grand affair
I shook hands with the elite
I went to talk to Charlie
and tripped on my big feet
I rolled down steps on carpet
and landed on all fours
and then I lost me balance
and all could see me draws.
Ole Charlie started laughing
and Edward gave a hand
the corgie`s started barking
and me legs they turned to sand.
Me heart was beating faster
oh what an eventful day
I stopped to pull me draws up
and couldn`t wait to get away
