Long Live The King

The first thing that they tell you

Is that you will be king

A priest at least they tell you

And that then everything



Will be alright at last

You will finally be cast

Into your rightful throne

They've got it all down cold



Next thing that they tell you

Is not to be afraid

Think you're better than the others

Somewhat fine and brave



They lead astray

You could be up there all alone

A star they say

A million miles away from home

An empty space

Is that the place you wanted?



The last thing that they tell you about

Is they ask you "Will it hurt?"

They said,"Sell what you can, boy

Get out while the getting's good"



And they whisper in the evening

Now, all around town

They said, "Woo, Humpty Dumpty

The king is falling down"



I said,"Just like Humpty Dumpty

(All the king's horses

The king is falling down"

(And all the king's men)



I said, "Ooh, Humpty Dumpty now

(Could not put old Humpty Dumpty now)

The king is falling down"

(Back together again)



I said,"Oh, the king is falling down"

(All the king's horses and all the king's men)

I said,"Oh, the king is falling down"

(Could not put old Humpty Dumpty now back together again)



I said,"Oh, the king is falling down"

(All the king's horses and all the king's men)

I said,"Oh, the king is falling down"

(Could not put old Humpty Dumpty now back together again)



I said,"Oh, the king is falling down"

(All the king's horses and all the king's men)

I said,"Oh, the king is falling down"

(Could not put old Humpty Dumpty now back together again)
