My name is,
My name is,
My name is,
Charles II!

I love the people
And the people love me
So much that they restored
The English monarchy!
I'm part Scottish, French, Italian
A little bit Dane
But one hundred percent party animal
Champagne?
Spaniels I adored
Named after me too
Like me, they were fun
With a nutty hair do!
Is today my birthday?
I can't recall
Let's have a party anyway
Because I love a masked ball!

All hail, the king!
Of bling! Let's sing!
Bells ring! Ding ding!
I'm the king who brought back partying!
King Charles, my daddy
Lost his throne
And kings were banned
They chopped off his head
Then Olly Cromwell ruled the land
Old Olly wasn't jolly
He was glum, and he was proud
Would be miserable as sin
Only sinning's not allowed!
When Olly died, the people said
'Charlie, me hearty!
Get rid of his dull laws
Come back, we'd rather party! '
This action's what they called
The monarchy restoration
Which naturally was followed
By a huge celebration!

The King of Eng! (Land say! )
No sin! Too sing! (Okay! )
Or anything!
All say, I'm the king who brought back partying!

Great London Fire was a whopper!
In my reign, London city came a-cropper!
So this king did what was right and proper
Fought the fire, proved I'm more than a bopper
I'm a fire stopper!
Married Catherine Braganza
She was a love so true
There would never be another
Well... maybe one or two!
Lucy Walter, Nell Gwynne
Moll Davies, Barbara Villiers
You think that's bad
But her name's not as silly as...
Hortense Mancini!
As king, I must admit
I broke the wedding rules
But who cares when I brought back
The crown jewels?
I reinstated Christmas
Make up, sports and even plays
I was the merry monarch
They were good old days!
When said and done!
King Charles did run!
England for fun!
I was the king loved by everyone
My song is done!

Party anyone?

He was a highly intelligent, human being, who did the least he could do in order to keep some sort of semblance of unity. Basically he was a very clever human being, who was also very idle and very indolent..

[indefatigable]

There’s not enough documentaries on him. He’s so fascinating!

[patriciahill]

the narrator has a wonderful voice .... Great to listen

[spetty]

they finally brought back the good narrator

[HUrick]

I eagerly hope that we will finish the Stuart era with documentaries of King James II, William & Mary of Orange, and Queen Anne. I love your work. Please continue.

[TheWendybird]

Charles II was a good king; he could have been great. If he could have had the same focus to solve problems that he did during and after the Great Fire and the plague instead of too much frivolity, imagine what more he could have accomplished! But maybe he was giving the people what they needed - permission to live it up and have fun after a decade of stoic Puritanism and suppression of any joie de vivre.

[armandonanez]

I want him to make a full documentary about George cuvier the father of paleontology

From what I know about him he set up the modern scientific community which was very enlightened for that era despite having Roman Catholic leanings. I thank him for that one thing because science has changed the world.

[readsomebooks]

Philip the Good seems a fantastic candidate.

[politecat]

A fascinating monarch! I admire his passion and interests in science and the arts.
