The Divine Comedy - Catherine the Great lyrics

Let's talk of Catherine the Great Let's talk of love and the power of the state She was a crazy, spontaneous girl Everyone paid homage to her Catherine the Great There were few brainier Just ask the king of Lithuania She could dictate what went on anywhere She had great hair And a powerful gait Catherine the Great Catherine the Great She could converse with the best She knew Voltaire, Diderot, and the rest She might have conquered a third of the world But inside she was a sensitive girl Catherine the Great With her military might She could defeat anyone that she liked And she looked so bloody good on a horse That they couldn't wait For her to invade Catherine the Great (Yekaterina Alexeyevna Yekaterina Alexeyevna Yekaterina Alexeyevna) Yekaterina Alexeyevna Let's talk of Catherine the Great Let's talk of love and the power of the state If I could touch but the hem of her dress Tell her a joke Bake her a cake Catherine the Great
