The King’s Breakfast

The King asked the Queen

And the Queen asked the Dairymaid:

“Could we have some butter

For the royal slice of bread?”

The Queen asked the Dairymaid,

The Dairymaid said, “Certainly,

I’ll go and tell the cow now

Before she goes to bed.”

The Dairymaid she curtsied,

And went and told the Aulderney:

“Don’t forget the butter

For the royal slice of bread.”

The Aulderney said sleepily,

“You’d better tell his Majesty

That many people nowadays

Like marmalade instead.”

The Dairymaid said, “Fancy!”

And went to her Majesty.

She curtsied to the Queen

And she turned a little red.

“Excuse me, your Majesty,

for taking of the liberty,

But marmalade is tasty

If it’s very thickly spread.”

The Queen said, “Oh!”

And went to his Majesty:

“Talking of the butter

For the royal slice of bread,

Many people think

That marmalade is nicer.

Would you like to try

A little marmalade instead?”

The King said, “Bother!”

And then he said, “Oh, dear me!”

The King sobbed, “Oh, dear me!”

And went back to bed.

“Nobody,” he whimpered,

“Could call me a fussy man.

I only wan a little bit

Of butter for my bread!”

The Queen said, “There, there!”

And went to the Dairymaid.

The Dairymaid said, “There, there!”

And went to the shed.

The Cow said, “There, there!

I didn’t really mean it;

Here’s milk for his porringer

And butter for his bread.”

The Queen took the butter

And brought it to his Majesty.

The King said, “Butter, eh?”

And bounced out of bed.

“Nobody,” he said,

As he kissed her tenderly.

“Nobody,” he said,

As he slid down the banisters.

“Nobody, my darling,

could call me a fussy man –

BUT

I DO like a little bit

Of butter to my bread.”
