Unfaithful - Horrific Histories

My first entry on my blog is the first song I created for my Horrific Histories collection - a selection of parody songs I wrote and submitted to the BBC for their Horrible Histories programme. I got a thank you letter and a signed photo of the cast for my trouble.
 
Unfaithful by Rihanna Catherine of Aragon
I’m sitting here alone
Beside an empty throne
Because the king has gone away
He wanted a son
I couldn’t give him one
So he has decided to play

Been married 20 years
But now I am afeared
That Henry’s gonna divorce me
Cause he’s met Anne Boleyn
And though it is a sin
He’s looking for adultery

And he knows that I know he’s unfaithful
And it kills me inside
To see him walking with that young girl by his side
I feel I am dying

Don't want him to do this anymore
I don't wanna let our marriage die
Every time he walks out the door
He knows I die a little more inside
Don't want him to do this anymore
I don't wanna stop being his wife
I don't wanna be...
A dowager

It started with Bess Blount
Now too many to count
All because he wants an heir
But this one’s not the same
She’s playing a new game
She’s caught my husband in her snare
He’s taken her to France
Enjoys watching her dance
He’s spending with her all his days
I think he oughta
Not forget our daughter
Who’s gonna set the town ablaze

And he knows that I know he’s unfaithful
And it kills me inside
To see him walking with that young girl by his side
I feel I am dying

Don't want him to do this anymore
I don't wanna let our marriage die
Every time he walks out the door
He knows I die a little more inside
Don't want him to do this anymore
I don't wanna stop being his wife
I don't wanna be...
A dowager

I love him but
He’s gone and found another girl that he wants to marry
Start a family
Don't wanna him to do this
Anymore
No
Anymore (anymore)

Don't want him to do this anymore
I don't wanna let our marriage die
Every time he walks out the door
He knows I die a little more inside
Don't want him to do this anymore
I don't wanna stop being his wife
I don't wanna be...
A dowager

No no no no
Yeah yeah yeah
