King for a Day

Welcome to the nightmare
 where villains wear the crowns
 Fools rule a broken world
 and fear grows all around
 There's a bad king
 a dreadful puppet on a string
 
 He pretends to be a champion
 of the common man
 Wants more division
 in his lost and riven land
 He plays with real lives
 in the darkest game of life
 ♪
 His greedy eyes
 look insane, frozen smile like he's in pain
 
 He doesn't count
 the human cost but only money made or lost
 ♪
 King for a day
 he kills the truth and looks away
 King for a day
 lives like the world would end today
 King for a day
 What do you hide, why do you lie?
 Who made the rules for this game?
 Who is paying your champagne?
 All the mercy in the world
 cannot save you anymore
 King for a day
 ♪
 He knows how to justify
 and how to feed the myths
 how to glorify
 the lies and hide the truth
 He talks a lot but
 his mouth is full of empty words
 He has the right friends
 making shady inside deals
 Before the story ends
 we will be out of tears
 Fools give the answers
 wise men don't even try
 The time has come
 to dethrone him but there's a new clone stepping in
 just more scum
 another greedy, rotten puppet on a string
 King for a day
 he kills the truth and looks away
 King for a day
 lives like the world would end today
 King for a day
 What do you hide, why do you lie?
 Who made the rules for this game?
 Who is paying your champagne?
 All the mercy in the world
 cannot save you anymore
 King for a day
 ♪
 "I own the seas
 I have the Earth on its knees
 Give me another day
 and I'll take your future away
 Just vote for me again"
 King for a day
 he kills the truth and looks away
 King for a day
 lives like the world would end today
 King for a day
 What do you hide, why do you lie?
 Who made the rules for this game?
 Who is paying your champagne?
 All the mercy in the world
 cannot save you anymore
 King for a day
