I Had It All
I had it all—jewels in a crown.
I had it all—beautiful gowns.
I had it all, was the talk of the town.
I had it all. I had it all.
I am a queen
with seventy servants serving me,
but I serve a machine
commonly known as The Royal Family.
But you never take what you make beyond the grave.
Did you hear me say? Never take what you make, oh!
I had it all—jewels in a crown.
I had it all—beautiful gowns.
I had it all, was the talk of the town.
I had it all. I had it all.
I’m the heiress of a King
and it’s my face on the currency,
but this crown’s a funny thing;
to be honest, it’s really hassling me.
See the worker bees made me a Queen, they fed me royal jelly,
but the worker bees have made another queen! Uh-oh! Uh-oh! Uh-oh!
I had it all—jewels in a crown.
I had it all—beautiful gowns.
I had it all, was the talk of the town.
I had it all. I had it all.
Diamonds are the windows. Red rubies ’round the stairs.
The tassels are no hassle, when the tailor tends your care.
The butler’s in the boudoir. The joker’s in the hall.
Have you seen my lovely portrait hanging in the hall?
I had it all—jewels in a crown.
I had it all—beautiful gowns.
I had it all, was the talk of the town.
I had it all. I had it all.
I had it all—jewels in a crown.
I had it all—beautiful gowns.
I had it all, was the talk of the town.
I had it all. (I had it all.)
I had it all. (I had it all.)
I had it all.
