Aw, shucks! Thanks. The theme was inspired by Billy Bragg's "Take Down The Union Jack".

Actually, on reading it back I see that the meter (which was obvious in my head, because I wrote it) could be misconstrued. On the "chorus" lines, I intended that the emphasis be:

"OH Britannia DON'T you think you'll NEVer rule aGAIN"

...to a 4:4 rhythm.
