Unlike their foul-mouthed back catalogue as The K*nts (The Christmas Top 10 singles Boris Johnson is a F***ing C***, Boris Johnson is STILL a F***ing C***, and F*** The Tories), The Krown Jewels have turned over a new leaf - Scrap The Monarchy contains no expletives, in order that it can be covered in the press, played on the radio and announced on the BBC Radio 1 chart rundown.
Scrap The Monarchy sees singer K his scathing best, as the song takes aim at the very notion of a Royal Family living in luxury while normal people are suffering with a cost of living crisis - "Not so much Prince Charming, more Prince Charm Offensive."
The Krown Jewels are busy putting the finishing touches to the video which features the band in a dance routine dressed as guardsmen, heads on spikes and a King Charles lookalike with saveloys for fingers.
The band describe the song as "A sing-a-long for the millions of people who don't want to engage with the BBC's dull, simpering, and overly-extensive coverage, for which, like the Coronation, we are ultimately footing the bill."
Scrap The Monarchy will be released on the eve of the Coronation: 05/05/23.
