Victoria - The Kinks

Long ago life was clean
Sex was bad and obscene
And the rich were so mean
Stately homes for the Lords
Croquet lawns, village greens
Victoria was my queen
Victoria, Victoria, Victoria, ‘toria

I was born, lucky me
In a land that I love
Though I am poor, I am free
When I grow I shall fight
For this land I shall die
Let her sun never set
Victoria, Victoria, Victoria, ‘toria
Victoria, Victoria, Victoria, toria

Land of hope and gloria
Land of my Victoria
Land of hope and gloria
Land of my Victoria
Victoria, ‘toria
Victoria, Victoria, Victoria, ‘toria

Canada to India
Australia to Cornwall
Singapore to Hong Kong
From the West to the East
From the rich to the poor
Victoria loved them all
Victoria, Victoria, Victoria, ‘toria
Victoria, Victoria, Victoria

Charming pictures. She was talented.

[momtothree]

I think she had wonderful artistic talent. (but I will admit I wouldn’t want her childhood nickname.. nuff said)

[TASMANIANRED]

Reminds me of illustrations in children's books..

Wonder if they were as pudgy as she sketched them?

[wintertime]

Very sweet drawings. With competent art training and serious study she may have become an accomplished artist.
