The King

The other day

I got in a fight

It involved me and my foot and my mouth

And my wife

Then I got to thinking

Wouldn’t it be grand

If with every word I said

My wish was the world’s command

I’d be the king

I’d be the top

I’d give myself a raise

Throw my own parade

Be number one, the chief, the boss

I’d be the king

No honey-do list

I’d rule

Whatever I say is the way that it goes

That’d be cool

And I’d go fishing

watch sports on TV

And folks would carry me around

And I’d get to wear a crown

And I’d never spend a day on my feet

I’d be the king

I’d be the top

I’d give myself a raise

Throw my own parade

Be number one, the chief, the boss

I’d be the king

I’d be living large

I’d be in charge

& the world would bow to me

I’d be the king

It happened again

I got in a fight

It involved me and my foot and my mouth

And my wife
