The King Is Dead |
| Some people make a living |
| While others make it killing |
| Some start out as the hero |
| But they end up as the villain |
| Some people do the working |
| While others do the talking |
| I can see ‘em out there cruising |
| While the rest of us are walking |
| Some sail on a ship of fools |
| That do their best to make the rules |
| It might be that they don’t see |
| But it’s plain to me |
| The king is dead, the king is dead |
| He fought the fight but he lost his head |
| The king is dead but all they said |
| Was long live king |
| Long live the king |
| Oh don’t stand there looking useless |
| Pick up a heavy hammer |
| Get down upon your hands and knees |
| To work down in the mud |
| You’re gonna be subjected |
| To the struggle of existence |
| It’s time to show us all |
| What you’re really made of |
| Stand down, your game of greed |
| And find out what you really need |
| Untie the ties that behind |
| And leave it all behind |
| The king is dead, the king is dead |
| He fought the fight but he lost his head |
| The king is dead and all they said |
| Was long live king |
| The king is dead, the king is dead |
| We’re marching down on streets of red |
| The king is dead but all they said |
| Was long live king |
| Long live the king |
| Long live the king |
| Long live the king |
| Whoo! |
