lyrics

👤 The Soldiers:

All hail His Majesty most high
Dressed up and ready for the show
A coronation with thorny spines
On a head sore from a hundred blows

A purple robe
A purple robe

Make way make way before the King
A children's castle playset dolly thing
A subject of the rules of the game we're in
A dangling piñata to pull the punters in
While we throw dice so as not to waste
Whatever royal rags He had to His name

👤 The Crowd:

Come down, come down, show us if You can
He saved everybody else why can't He save himself?
