Long Live the King Songtext
von Nik Kershaw

The King has lost his crown
Was up, but now, he′s down
A shame because he really was
A man of such renown
He fell upon his head
Was taken to his bed
And there he fought but all for nought
And now, the King is dead

Long live the King, long live the King
We hope he gets to do his thing
Ding dong the bells, the bells - they're gonna ring


The King has lost his mind
His Majesty resigned
And dressed in chintz, his son, the Prince
Is just a step behind
He stalks him like a ghost
With much to prove, he makes his move
And now, the King is toast

Long live the King, long live the King
We hope he gets to do his thing
Ding dong the bells, the bells - they′re gonna ring

A King for a, a King for a, a King for a day
A King for a, a King for a, a King for a day

The King has lost his way
He reached his prime before his time
And now, he's had his day

Long live the King, long live the King
We hope he gets to do his thing
We hope he gets a song to sing
Ding dong the bells, the bells - they're gonna ring
