Cruel Queen

The queen she divides her land into three
 She is as cruel as she wants to be
 Many an hour she sits there all alone
 All alone, but always thinking
 Which of my children loves me the best?
 I'll give them everything, leave none to the rest
 I'll give them all my land and my jewels too
 But my love, none shall have it
 Mother, dear mother, you've done me great wrong
 You married me when I was far too young
 The man was rich, but he left me with a child
 I need your gold to feed him
 Daughter, dear daughter, I've done you no wrong
 I married you to a great lord's son
 Find a new man for when I'm dead and gone
 As for gold, I'll give you nothing
 Mother, dear mother, if you see fit
 Grant me your kingdom and I'll watch over it
 I will rule your land as you would yourself
 For I am most like you
 Daughter, dear daughter, no, I don't see fit
 To give you my land, you'll have none of it
 Your words offend me for how could you presume
 That you could rule as I do?
 Which of my children loves me the best?
 I'll give them everything, leave none to the rest
 I'll give them all my land and my jewels too
 But my love, none shall have it
 Mother, dear mother, I do not want your land
 I don't want your riches, nor jewels on my hand
 My request is simple, it's every child's desire
 I only want your blessing
 Daughter, dear daughter, you're nothing but a fool
 This world is governed by one and only rule
 I will die with all my land and my jewels too
 And my love, none shall have it
