lyrics

the king is dead
fuck the king

see him lying
on the cold gold slab
he was once the lord
of all this land
now he'll rot beneath
the ground
just like any other man

he's got everything
he's deserved. now he'll be
eaten by the worms

the king is dead
fuck the king

he's just a man, my friends
a man with a golden hat
and any time we like
we can take it, just like that

the king's just a man
just like anyone
he can be killed!

fuck the king, let's kill him!
throw him off a bridge
cut off his head, set him on fire
he's just a man
he'll die like any other
