[Oliver Cromwell]
It was a cruel necessity
Something of a mess, but he's
A right Charlie, too proud a king
To work with each MP
Parliament he did abandon
Doesn't have a leg to stand on
[Charles I]
The cruel necessities of God's will came to me
[Cromwell]
It came to you
[Charles]
It came to me
[Cromwell]
We've scrapped the Long Parliament
Leaving us with a Rump
Thought supporters would help me
But they got the hump
I tried to delegate the crafts of state
Instead, all landed on my plate
Had to go and fight in Dublin
Leaving dolts in charge was troubling
I ditched the King, but those MPs were worse than he
