"The Queen and I"
Song

"The Queen and I" is the first single from the Gym Class Heroes CD, As Cruel as School Children. The song is a more fast-paced song than many other GCH songs. The song refers to Travis falling in love with an alcoholic (the "Queen"). "The Queen and I" was a non-chart qualifier in the UK as both physical formats contained a sticker, which is against UK chart rules. The single was re-released in the UK on 29 October, 2007 following the top five success of "Cupid's Chokehold" and "Clothes Off!!" there. This song has featured in computer games Tony Hawk's Project 8, and an instrumental version on Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2008.

Music Video

The music video starts with multiple men (such as a jester and a wizard) all trying to gain the love of the Queen. Each one desperately tries to woo her, each one equally as unsuccessful. Travis then comes in and tries his luck by rapping for the Queen, but he also seems to be unsuccessful. As he leaves, he trips and the Queen smiles. She soon changes her mind about Travis and chases after him. However when she reaches him he disappears, leaving only his jacket and his trademark, a toothbrush(He is seen brushing his teeth at some point in almost every video). The video ends with the Queen looking very angry and the words "she was to live unhappily ever after" are printed on the last page of a story book (the one opened at the beginning of the video).
