Freddie Mercury
British protectorate of Zanzibar
birth place of our star.
Nineteen forty six the year
father a British Colonial office
cashier.
Zanzibar revolution a bit of a shock
his parents carefully taking stock.
A move to England they decided on
the slaughter increasing whereupon.
Freddie seventeen in this year
career wise, unclear.
West Thames College studies art
but music closer to his heart.
Worked at Heathrow Airport awhile
then tried the Liverpool life style.
Lived above a Liverpool pub
The Dovedale Towers with its pub grub.
Not till he met Brian May
did he show his musical array.
Guitar, piano, vocalist too
innate talents came shining through.
Composing songs amongst his skills
an individual success 'Love Kills'.
With Queen though, world fame
super-stardom, international acclaim.
