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
