In the war of the roses, the tragedy source
King Edward was bound to die.
Richard III the new Lord protector [bad word] with "Loyalty me lie".
vigilant guardian to the sons of the king
as sure as an eagle will fly.
He died in a battle in 1485
and Henry defamed Richard with lies.

Richard was charged in the "Act of Attainder"
with tyranny, murder and gain.
Henry revoked the "Titulus Regulas"
with the smile of the vicious insane.
Henry VII that rotten [bad word] 
executed the whole house of York.
Elizabeth Woodville was immured for life
and Tyrrel the liar was aquitted by court.

 [bad word] 
The poisoned thorns of the bloody red rose.
Red venom of deepest dye.
Henry the traitor, the victor by sin,
soiled Richard's blood with a grin.

        (SOLO)

While Richard [bad word]  the boys were alive.
When he died the boys disappeared.
Henry killed them to get onto the throne,
but the book of [bad word] was sealed.
Henry paid Tyrrel to say that he had murdered
in the name of Sir Richard the Brave.
Henry killed Tyrrel without any trial.
So Tyrrel took the [bad word] to his grave.

 [bad word] (3x):
The poisoned thorns of the bloody red rose.
Red venom of deepest dye.
Henry the traitor, the victor by sin,
soiled Richard's blood with a grin.
