Momus - The Ugly Sister lyrics
[Momus - The Ugly Sister lyrics]
Who choose to specialize
Who talents to the girls on either side
Who vie amongst themselves for
The values to prize
Great Britain when America and
France had revolutions
Decided she should specialize
In ancient institutions
Leaving sex and art to the French
Leaving cash and power to the states
Leaving 'Great' in her name
But forgetting to be great
Which might explain why Shakespeare is
Still our greatest writer
And why Lord Byron and I thumbed our noses
At the ugly sister and ran away
