## Lyrics

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Grew up in the French court

Oui oui, bonjour

Life was a chore, so

**[ENSEMBLE]**

She set sail

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

1522, came straight to the UK

All the British dudes lame

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Epic fail

Ooh

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

I wanna dance and sing

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Politics

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Not my thing

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Ooh

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

But then I met the king

And soon my daddy said

"You should try and get ahead!"

He wanted me, obviously

Kept messaging me like every day

Couldn't be better, then he sent me a letter

And who am I kidding?

I was prêt à manger

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Ooh

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Sent a reply

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Ooh

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Just saying "hi"

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Ooh

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

"You're a nice guy

I'll think about it maybe

XO baby"

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Uh oh

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Here we go

**[ENSEMBLE]**

You sent him kisses

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

I didn't know I would move in with his missus

**[ENSEMBLE]**

What?!

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Get a life!

**[ENSEMBLE]**

You're living with his wife?

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Like, what was I meant to do?

Sorry, not sorry 'bout what I said

I'm just tryna have some fun

Don't worry, don't worry, don't lose your head

I didn't mean to hurt anyone

L-O-L, say "oh well"

Or go to hell

I'm sorry, not sorry 'bout what I said

Don't lose your head

Three in the bed

And the little one said

"If you wanna be wed

Make up your mind!"

Her or me, chum

Don't wanna be some

Girl in a threesome

Are you blind?

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Ooh

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Don't be bitter

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Ooh

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

'Cause I'm fitter

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Ooh

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Why hasn't it hit her?

He doesn't wanna bang you

Somebody hang you

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Uh oh

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Here we go

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Your comment went viral

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

I didn't really mean it but rumours spiral

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Wow Anne, way to make the country hate you

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Mate, what was I meant to do?

Sorry, not sorry 'bout what I said

I'm just tryna have some fun

Don't worry, don't worry, don't lose your head

I didn't mean to hurt anyone

L-O-L, say "oh well"

Or go to hell

I'm sorry, not sorry 'bout what I said

Don't lose your head

Tried to elope

But the Pope said "nope"

Our only hope was Henry

He got a promotion

Caused a commotion

Set in motion the C of E

**[ENSEMBLE]**

The rules

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Were so outdated

Us two wanted to get X-rated

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Soon

Excommunicated

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Everybody chill, it's totes God's will

Henry's out every night on the town

Just sleeping around like "what the hell?"

If that's how it's gonna be

Maybe I'll flirt with a guy or three

Just to make him jel

Henry finds out and he goes mental

He screams and shouts like so judgemental

"You damned witch!"

Mate, just shut up

I wouldn't be just a b- if you could get it up

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Uh oh

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Here we go

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Is that what you said?

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

And now he's going 'round like

"Off with her head!"

**[ENSEMBLE]**

No!

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Yeah, I'm pretty sure he means it

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Seems it

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

What was I meant to do?

**[ENSEMBLE]**

What was she meant to do?

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Like, what was I meant to do?

**[ENSEMBLE]**

What was she meant to do?

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

No, but what was I meant to do?

Sorry, not sorry 'bout what I said

I'm just tryna have some fun

Don't worry, don't worry, don't lose your head

I didn't mean to hurt anyone

L-O-L, say "oh well"

Or go to hell

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Just go to hell!

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Sorry, not sorry 'bout what I said

**[ENSEMBLE]**

Sorry, not sorry 'bout what she said

**[ANNE BOLEYN]**

Sorry, not sorry 'bout what I said

Don't lose your head

## Trivia

* The uses of the word "mate" are replaced by "bro" and "wait" in the North American productions of the musical, most likely for localization.
* In the live performances, there's a little break between the last bridge and chorus where Anne shouts, "No guys seriously, he's actually going to chop my head off!"
* While there are multiple accounts of why Anne was beheaded, the musical chooses to go with the idea that she committed adultery, lending to her flirty personality.
