IF I WERE KING ON GOD’S GREEN EARTH IF I WERE KING AND I HAD MY WAY MY FIRST DECREE WOULD BE BE THANKFUL BROTHER EVERY DAY
IT’S A POOR HEART THAT THAT CAN’T REJOICE IT’S AN ILL WIND THAT GIVES NO MIRTH
PRAY LIKE HELL FOR ALL YOU’RE WORTH
FOR THIS OLD ‘HOOD OUR PLANET EARTH
HEARTS ACHE SOULS SHAKE
BUT I CAN’T BRING MYSELF TO WORRY
MAYHEM BREAKING OUT EVERYWHERE
I’VE ALREADY SAID MY PRAYERS
THEY SAY WE’RE FREE AND SOVEREIGN BEINGS TRUE UNTO OURSELVES
THAT WE WERE WITH THE MAKER LONG BEFORE THE ANGELS FELL
NOW WE’RE WHISTLING PAST THE GRAVEYARD BOTH EYES PEELED FOR THE BOGEYMAN IS THAT REALLY ALL SHE WROTE
ALL THAT’S LEFT OF THE MASTER PLAN
I’M HOPING BEFORE THE END
ABOUT HOW ONE GUY WENT THE DISTANCE
I’LL SKID TO A STOP WITH A TALE TO TELL GOT ALL THE GOLD IN THE WISHING WELL
THERE’S A LITTLE COLOURED BOY PLAYING HIP HOP ON A GHETTO BLASTER
HE DON’T NEED NOBODY HE KNOWS HE IS HIS OWN MASTER
MEANWHILE IN THE WIDE WIDE WORLD
DISASTER
I DON’T KNOW BUT IT LOOKS TO ME
EVERYBODY’S RUNNING FROM THE NEXT
IF I WAS THEM I’D PEDAL FASTER
MY BLOOD’S BURNING
WORLD’S STILL TURNING
LIFE THESE DAYS IS SO MUCH FUN ONE MORE LAP AROUND THE SUN
