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.
