The Dandy Highwaymen’s lyrics archive: Regicide is Rough
To the tune of “On the Mend” by Courtney Dewey
At the Bastille without you
Isn’t it a shame
You told us you’d protect us
We knew you were rigging the game
We shed your blood and we’re new again
We no longer believe that you’re our friend
Help from a guillotine and we’re new again
Regicide is rough, but we’re on the mend
We’re on the mend
Moving on without you
Who is there to blame
We had to take Marie too
But it didn’t feel the same
We shed your blood and we’re new again
We no longer believe that you’re our friend
Help from a guillotine and we’re new again
Regicide is rough, but we’re on the mend
We’re on the mend
On the mend
On the mend
New Again
