lyrics

When I am King

When I am king
I will do whatever you say
Don’t want to be resented as one of those kings
Who was just born this way

I’ll have an escape hatch, if you will:
A private jet with a seat reserved for you

We’ll fly to the islands where they filmed
The cigarette ads that informed our youth

We’ll be the ones who just walked away…
To embrace the sun and the king sized filter tip…

But before I go,
There’s a couple of things that I’d like to do:

Let’s can the hangings in the town square
OH YEAH

Get that shit back indoors where it belongs

And free farms for all
Just bring your own sheep

When I am king…I can do anything

Fuck it:

Cancel everything
