THE ROYAL GRUMP SONG
Music & Lyrics: Alexander James Adams


There’s no sun and there’s no light,
The day’s too short, too long the night,
I’m way too cold, I’m way too wet,
It’s just as bad as it can get!
What can I do to make it all fine?
If I can’t grump, I’ll just plum wine!

I work too hard, yet I’m too poor,
I cannot take it any more,
I’m way too tired, I’m wide awake,
I’ve had as much as I can take!
From happy days, I’ll have to resign!
If I can’t grump, I’ll just plum wine!

I rant and rave around the house,
I gripe and groan and grump and grouse,
You chuckle at me all the while,
I challenge you to make me smile!
I’m in rage and it is all mine!
If I can’t grump, I’ll just plum wine!

It’s a matter of honour and a matter of pride!
I can’t explain how I feel inside!
I have tried to cheer up but the bottom line,
Is if I can’t grump, I’ll just plum wine!

I scream and shout so you can hear,
I tell you that the end is near,
I still can’t stand, I still can’t think
You win me with my favourite drink!
Give me that glass though I feel asinine
If I can’t grump I’ll drink plum wine!
