[Verse 1]
In the kingdom we reside
Are corners in which heathens dwell
Great fields where the cash is sewn
Fortunes reaped and profits grown
[Verse 2]
And have you heard of county lines?
Transport and spread, transport and spread
And no concern for what's in store
Detest, denounce, dethrone, deplore
[Verse 3]
And 10 'til 4 are check in times
Please wipe your feet before you enter
Your obedience is much acknowledged
Much like a session man at music college
[Verse 4]
Well, some of you'll get patriotic
And reminisce of times that were
And cries of mighty empire follow
It's all propaganda, stale and hollow
[Verse 5]
The kingdom
The kingdom
The kingdom
The kingdom
[Verse 6]
Before we'd even convalesced
Right arms chased heaven
Silent heroes of a post-brawl time
Just like planet - undermined
[Verse 7]
And hero culture's rife as rain
Old man drags around his yard
To cheers and claps and thoughts and prayers
Well we'll spunk to this for many years, we'll spunk to this for many years
[Verse 8]
The kingdom
The kingdom
The kingdom
The kingdom
[Verse 9]
Television's metaphysical
All fucking, dating, cooking, baking
And people pushed to purgatory
By sponges sodden vehemently
[Verse 10]
Significance of art negated
Hold dear and cuddle up to works
That pick apart and mock the road
This shipwreck surely sails towards
As if would ever assemble boards
Or denounce advertisement boards
Just ain't the way that us lot roll
Yes, hesitance will take its toll
[Verse 11]
The kingdom
The kingdom
The kingdom
Who knows what will become of the kingdom?
The kingdom, king-king-king-kingdom
The kingdom
The kingdom
The kingdom
I hold the keys to the kingdom
