When a royal princess marries, she don't get 110 sort of show;
She mustn't choose her husband from the folks wot are below;
He may be old and ugly or he may be fat or thin,
But the thing that's most important is that he should have the tin.

Chorus—
Yes, the tiling that's most important is that he should have the tin.

Now there's our little Mary gone and married Lord Lascelles,
He was twice as old as she was when they rang the wedding bells.
They say it was a love match, tho' to look at he's no beaut,
But he's got wot's more important, for he's got the bloomin' hoot.

Chorus—
Yes, he's got what's more important, for he's got the bloomin' hoot.

Now Georgie, Duke of York, has got married to Lizzie Lyon.
The ring it was of sapphires, and they say it was a pie 'un.
Now Lizzie's quite a sporting lass and pretty as a peach;
She also owns half Scotland, so our
Georgie's struck it rich.

Chorus—
Yes, she also owns half Scotland, so our Georgie's struck it rich.

Now what of Eddie, Prince of Wales?
His case it's a bad 'un;
They say he's looking for a wife; it's really time he had 'un.
We hope they will not land him with some princess off the shelf,
For we'd like to see our Eddie pop the question for himself.

Chorus—
Yes, we'd like to see our Eddie pop the question for himself.
