Lyrics Ray Davies – Introduction
Text:
Tonight I’m going to read from the black book, the black book of X-Ray, the tormented rantings of a sex-crazed rock ‘n roller
I want you to imagine that’s it’s the beginning of a new century
Not the next century because that’s too predictable
I’m talking about the last century because hundred years ago
That was the time when Great Britain had an empire
And it’s crucial to our story this evening
You see, hundred years ago there was a queen on the throne of England. Her name was Victoria
Now I want ev’rybody clap your hands
Let’s hear clap your hands. Let’s go, yeah
And it’s crucial to our story this evening

Now I want ev’rybody clap your hands
Let’s hear clap your hands. Let’s go, yeah
