The King Must Die |
| No man’s a jester playing Shakespeare |
| 'Round your throne room floor |
| While the juggler’s act is danced upon |
| The crown that you once wore |
| And sooner or later |
| Everybody’s kingdom must end |
| And I’m so afraid your courtiers |
| Cannot be called best friends |
| Caesar’s had your troubles |
| Widows had to cry |
| While mercenaries in cloisters sing |
| And the king must die |
| Some men are better staying sailors |
| Take my word and go |
| But tell the ostler that his name was |
| The very first they chose |
| And if my hands are stained forever |
| And the altar should refuse me, yeah |
| Would you let me in, would you let me in, would you let me in? |
| Should I cry sanctuary? |
| Caesar’s had your troubles |
| Widows had to cry |
| While mercenaries in cloisters sing |
| And the king must die, yeah! |
| The king must die |
| The king must die, oh, yeah |
| No man’s a jester playing Shakespeare |
| 'Round your throne room floor |
| While the juggler’s act is danced upon |
| The crown that you once wore |
| The king is dead |
| The king is dead |
| The king is dead |
| The king is dead |
| Long live the king |
