Hank Green - Queen Ranavalona I lyrics

Queen Ranavalona the First Throughout history k**ers found a way To gather enough power to put millions in their graves Henry was focused on his wives While Hitler's war took seven million lives But I've got to wonder if those guys were worse Than Queen Ranavalona the First Oh, Ranavalona, Ranavalona, Ranavalona the First They call her the mad queen, of Madagascar She'll sell you into slavery, or she'll boil you in tar She'll dress you up in bloody animal skins and set dogs on you A third of her nation died under her rule If even the reign of a woman was cursed It was Queen Ranavalona the First Ranavalona, Ranavalona, Ranavalona the First
