So Kim and I might have had a few drinks.
1066, England, Godiva
They say I tried to save a nation
A string 443311340 G
From the troubles of taxation
A string 44557884 C
By riding bareback through the town
A string 44455770 G
But tell me how that makes me sound C string 55443310 C
it's this mantle I now carry
A string 44557884 G
Because some Tom dick got all stary
C 444557785 C A
That line about the cake
Was a misprint and mistake
Anyone who tsaw my naked ride
The fact is that they lied
And no matter what they say
I never fucked a horse
1729, Poland, Catherine
I was just a small country girl
Innocent to the big wide world
When I married into idiocracy
I mothered a new dynasty
But the rumor that's remembered
Is I got nasty on a horse's member
That line about cake
Was a misprint and mistake
Anyone who saw my naked ride
The fact is that they lied
And no matter what they say
I never fucked a horse
1755, Austria, Marie
Blamed for comparing cake and bread
While my husband put a country in the red
For a damn necklace that wasn't mine
And it was my neck was on the line
Even while in line to be executed
I told the man, I didn't mean to do it.
That line about cake
Was a misprint and mistake
Anyone who saw my naked ride
The fact is that they lied
And no matter what they say
I never fucked a horse
If you're reading about history
Half our lives are shroud in mystery
Were we mean girls or just women
Trying to make a name among men
Spent a lifetime trying to resist
But instead only the myths persist
That line about cake
Was a misprint and mistake
Anyone who saw my naked ride
The fact is that they lied
And no matter what they say
I never fucked a horse
(Of course)

Drunken silly goodness. Some fun lyrics. I think you've got some good stuff here. Keep working on this when you sober up. :-)
