A land of Celts, Vikings, and Kings,
Spirit of the lion, the unicorn, I am in,
Saxon, Roman, Norman, Dutch,
Many rivers bring diversity much,
Indian, African, Asian, and All,
Building our land, supporting us all,
The age of the plane, passport and visa,
Equal rights for anyone who needs you,
Not a bad place to set up shack,
But you can bet your last penny,
They'll give you a lot more than that.
Never mind the nonsense spouted from those,
Who would choose to look good,
While taking off their nose,
No roll of the eyes or judgement required,
Sit back and dream of London's tall spires.
