“King For A Day”

You can have your First Amendment ‘Cause there’s nothing more to say And you can close down all the churches Because no one wants to pray And if my statements they offend you Well I say that they damn well should And if you say you want to help me Well I doubt you even could ‘Cause there are a few things in life That a man must do himself Like fine wine cannot be tamprered with As it sits high upon the shelf But if sometime in the future I should get some loyal subjects Then most likely I would treat them Just like inanimate objects For what is a man without a few people Only there to be pushed around To always blindly do his bidding And to throw roses on the ground So I am the king of all the people I am the ruler of this town And if you dare say something to me I might decide to put you down Some say it’s lonely at the tip-top But I say I disagree ‘Cause what do you know about power And since when have you been free So go and buy yourself some records And some books to while you’re at it Not that you’ll get your money’s worth Just like the TV’s they’re all static You’ll forget the way you lived life Before I came here to be When you’re shaking in the corner You’ll have no one to thank but me So take your last deep breath of fresh air And your last euphoric high ‘Cause when I come into power You can kiss yourself goodbye
