   Good.  With luck we'll be next to improve our dreadful dirge.  Maybe we   
   should also introduce some political correctness, and remove outdated   
   concepts, inaccuracies and debatable points:   
      
   Someone save our possibly gracious monarch   
   Long live our possibly noble monarch   
   Someone save the monarch   
   Send himherit victorious, happy and glorious   
   Long to live beside us   
   Someone save the monarch.   
      
   There.  It may need a bit more work, but it's a definite improvement   
   already.
