Good To Be King

(Herod! Herod! Herod!) (Herod! Herod! Herod!) (Herod! Herod! Herod!) (Herod! Herod!) (Herod!) It's good to be king And have the absolute authority All the attributes of divinity I'm a religion Look how they all worship me Don't have to be good To be a good king Just gotta look Like you've got sympathy Then keep 'em rooked and suffering To maximize your profiting Look how the peasants work down to the bone As I sit up high on my velvety throne Pulling the strings on the people below It's so stinking good to be king Mine is the kingdom Mine is the power Mine is the glory Forever More Kiss the ring, babies, kiss the ring Everybody hates me Ha, ha, ha! It's good to be king And be the one who screams "Off with his head!" Or be the one who's deemed Savior instead It's delicious To watch a man begging for his death I put in a knife and then give it a twist A smile opens up on my sinister lips The joy of the crown is too much to resist It's so stinking good to be king (I just love it!) Mine is the kingdom Mine is the power Mine is the glory, forever more Forever more Forever more It's so stinking good to be king!
