[Intro]
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh...)

[Verse 1]
It will never rain, never rain
If the great sky falls down
No rain, no more rain
Blood's pouring down
High alert, we watch it burn
It's a world under siege
Sirens, sirens
Everyone's whispering, the CIA, MI6
Hide the unknown
We're at the end of days, for heaven's sake

[Chorus]
The queen's been slain
She'll never rule again
The queen's been slain
She'll never rule again
Your queen's been slain
Queen's been slain

[Verse 2]
Black parade, motorcade
Destiny sings farewell, church bells
Is anyone listening?
Everywhere bowed in prayer
Tears are falling
Coming down, coming down
I hear the heavens calling
Providence, no evidence
There's no confirmation
And only silence remains
We only know one thing

[Chorus]
The queen's been slain
She'll never rule again
The queen's been slain
She'll never rule again
Your queen's been slain
Queen's been slain

[Bridge]
Who will take her place?
It's written on everyone's face
The truth is slowly dawning
I hear tomorrow calling
Some things can't be replaced
The realization of a new generation
On the eve of imitation
All gone, overthrown

[Chorus]
The queen's been slain
She'll never rule again
The queen's been slain
She'll never rule again
Your queen's been slain
Queen's been slain

[Outro]
May God bless you
May God bless you all
May God bless you all
