Well thingy told me, Well thingy told me
Right here for all to see, Right here for all to see

I don't know how she knew, I don't know how she knew
But it must be true, But it must be true

It's very strange, It's very strange
I'm sure they're deranged, I'm sure they're deranged

Oh it's true alright, Oh it's true alright
They were at it last night, They were at it last night

Didn't you know ?, Didn't you know ?
Apparently so, Apparently so

King Arthur and the vicar's wife, King Arthur and the vicar's wife
I swear on Elvis Presley's life, I swear on Elvis Presley's life

Hadn't you heard ?, Hadn't you heard ?
I read it in the 'News of the World', yeh, I read it in the 'News of the World'

Now tell me Sara, do tell me Sara 
Where did it all end, where did it all end? 
In the Tower I presume, in the Tower Prison I presume.... 
Funny, I like a good laugh.

Really nice and original, I loved it. Not sure if you will agree, but wouldn't it be interesting to have the second whisper - the echo - just slightly different, as if it was being repeated inaccurately? (i.e. I swear on Elvis Presley's knife?) It reminded me of chinese whispers, the children's game :grin good fun and you could easily do a series of these on different shock topics - like in a women's weekly magazine ;)  
 
Urgh, this review really rambled, sorry, but I did like it!
