[00:00.651]The King is in the counting house
[00:03.941]Counting out his money
[00:07.111]The Queen is in her parlour
[00:10.331]Eating bread and honey
[00:13.381]And in her royal heart of hearts
[00:15.761]She's happy as can be
[00:19.341]Isn't she
[00:22.371]Isn't she
[00:25.871]The King is always working
[00:28.581]Now signing proclamations
[00:32.461]The children see their father's brow
[00:35.571]Knitted by frustrations
[00:38.711]But in his royal heart of hearts
[00:41.941]He serves his family
[00:44.621]Doesn't he
[00:47.551]Doesn't he
[00:51.211]The golden calendar reflects a day
[00:54.371]Of obligations
[00:57.781]The King and Queen will offer
[01:00.081]Love to cold and distant nations
[01:03.961]The children's day goes
[01:05.561]By so fast nobody's thought to miss them
[01:10.371]The golden clock is striking twelve
[01:13.541]Now it's too late to to kiss them
[01:32.670]Though the castle's marble walls
[01:35.550]Don't echo any laughter
[01:38.760]But the family portrait
[01:41.750]Paints them happy ever after
[01:44.910]But in their royal heart of hearts
[01:47.980]They're happy as certainly
[01:50.080]Aren't we
[01:53.560]Aren't we
