Right, we should definitely learn the second verse of God Save The Queen and sing

it unaccompanied like Chile and Brazil do.

Here are the words for anyone who's with me:

O Lord our God arise,
Scatter her enemies,
And make them fall:
Confound their politics,
Frustrate their knavish tricks,
On Thee our hopes we fix:
God save us all.

It's particularly appropriate to be frustrating our enemies knavish tricks I would say.
