Gonna tell you a story about Chuck and Diane
Couple British kids from the palace at Buckingham
Chuckie wants to grow up and be a polo star,
And ride his little horsies all around the backyard (oh yeah)
You know they really paid their dues
I said hey, lady mama they got them Buckingham blues

Now Chuckie goes hunting, and leaves Diane alone
So she fixes her hair, and she talks on the Princess Phone
Chuckie's still tryin' to figure out what his job's supposed to be,
And Diane's the fashion leader of the aristocracy
I said hey, Lady Di, tell me where'd you get them shoes? Ah,
Well hey nonny nonny, looks like you got them Buckingham blues

Aw, bein' heir to the throne, well it must be awful hard
Gotta pose for pictures out on the front yard
And Lady Di, well, she must have it pretty rough
Gotta hang around the house all day, makin' babies and stuff
Another game of croquet, then they're off on a Caribbean cruise
Well hey bop-a-re-bop, they really got them Buckingham blues

(Ah, tell it to me, now tell it to--wow!

Ah got my mojo workin'!)

They don't serve no Twinkies with their afternoon tea
Never had a dinner made by Chef Boy-ar-Dee
Bein' in the spotlight is a hard life to choose
Diane drops half a pound it's on the six o'clock news Ah yeah,
Those kids have really paid their dues
Aw, what a royal pain it is, when you got them Buckingham blues
