The Wives’ Song lyrics

[Catherine of Aragon]

Henry my dear love

Long time no see love

I have not forgotten the dreadful way you treated me

You have shown no remorse

No guilt of course

How you sleep so well at night I'll never know

[Anne Boleyn]

Henry you

Disgust me

You spread false rumours of my adultery

You can't talk you are worse than me

You won hands down with infidelity

[Jane Seymour]

A baby boy to you I gave

Some say a sacrifice I made

You treated Mary oh so grave

For that I never forgave

[Anne of Cleves]

When you first laid eyes on me

You didn't like what you could see

The boots are now on the other foot

From here to me you don't look too good

[Katherine Howard]

A new lease on life, I gave to you

But in return all you could do

Was make me promises with empty words

That was no way to treat this wife

[Catherine Parr]

A nurse to you I may seem

I hear you curse I hear you scream

In your reign of terror many people you hurt

Some say your pain is your just dessert
