I know these two are getting a lot of media attention. Perhaps not as much in the US, but in Canada there is a debate over the merits of having them living up here. The biggest thing is, no one is sure who is gonna foot the security bill. Movie stars, singers, etc. pay for their own security.

At any rate...



Mary and Faygin

Mary and Faygin,
Was lookin' for space,
Away from his granny,
And the grime of the place.

But bein' most royal,
Was a pain in the throne,
'Cause the folks with the cameras,
Wouldn't leave 'em alone.

Like his mum, he was fated,
In much the same way,
As poor, dead King Duncan,
In that old Scottish play.

Him and the missus,
Had been lookin' around,
For a spot to raise children,
On safe, solid ground

They knew that the island
Was not a good place
So they looked at some options
Where they wouldn't be chased

But the problems was many
'Cause wherever they'd go
Their troubles would follow
Just like a dutch hoe.

And they wasn't too welcome
By most common folk
The cost to maintain 'em
Was a taxation yoke.

They might be nice people
But the price was too high
To look after the couple
When they was nearby.

It sucks bein' royal
So says the mob
You can quit bein' princely
But you can't quit the job!
