The words
Q! Q! Q! Kwuh, kwuh, kwuh!
Q is for Queen, Queen, Queen! Q is for Queen — kwuh, kwuh, Q!
Kwuh-kwuh-quilt, all warm and bright, kwuh-kwuh-quail says goodnight, kwuh-kwuh-quokka, smile so wide, Q is for Queen — dance with pride!
Kwuh-kwuh-quince, a yellow treat, kwuh-kwuh-quad bike, beep, beep, beep, kwuh-kwuh-queue, stand in a line, Q is for Queen — one at a time!
Twirl around, around, around, a little tail sweeps on the ground, twirl round, Queen — look, it's a Q! (Ta-da!)
Quack, quack, quack goes the duck, quick, quick, quick, good luck! Quiet now — shh, shh, shh — Q is for Queen — ta-da, and swish!
Say it with me: kwuh! (kwuh!) Say it again: kwuh! (kwuh!) Wave like a queen: kwuh! (kwuh!) Take a bow: kwuh! (kwuh!) Kwuh, kwuh, kwuh, kwuh — Q! Q! Queen!
Ta-da! Ta-da!
Q is for Queen, Queen, Queen! Q is for Queen — kwuh, kwuh, Q! Q is for Queen, Queen, Queen! Q is for Queen — kwuh, kwuh, Q!
Quilt, quail, quokka, quince, quad bike, queue — Q is for Queen...
