Be Royal

The Friday Song by Lach...

Hey Gang -

Click play above to hear your free song (that radio won’t air) today from Lach Stuff on Substack. This is a fan-exclusive cut from my Bandcamp Fan-club, but the song told me it wants everyone to be able to turn it up loud to dance to it today!

To learn more about the benefits of joining my Bandcamp scene just click here and watch the hilarious video a few Scottish comics and poets made about it all! Ha!

Ok, now onto this week’s song, Be Royal. It’s free… or to paraphrase Robert Plant, “Does anyone remember… freedom?”

Big Love

Lach ♥️

Be Royal  

Declare yr funky royalty 
To the unfazed stars, 
Though yr atomic nothingness  
A dot on the milky arms

Nevertheless, be blue blood royal
Make speeches from turrets
Be a Pharoah on the Nile 
Reading edicts from papyrus 

Be Royal  

Like a child declaring bedtime 
Should be an hour later
Like a poet declaring what rhymes
Be a pedantic dictator  

Don’t these monarchs look like toddlers
Itchy in ermine capes 
Pleading to buttling coddlers 
To help make good their escapes  

Be Royal  

Still, you go and be a monarch
Get yr ass up on that stage
Whilst the dawn greets the skylark
Flying past yr golden cage

Be Royal
