Lyrics

The king, he sat in a chair of gold and let life let him be
His daughter sat by his side most nights to keep him company
The wise man and the alchemist looked over the charts and graphs
Inconclusive, they're inconclusive, hopefully this will pass
The jester said, "I tried to make him laugh"
A party was thrown for the king that night and they tried to raise the dead
The golden chair still occupied by the king's resting head
The daughter danced with the alchemist and of course the wise man spoke
The jester said, "Hey, king, it's time for a little joke"
No response, I think the king is broke
Some weeks had passed and his subjects had all but given up
People were tired of forcing the king to try and live it up
The morning sun and the alchemist watched the king make his first move
The king stood up, stretched a bit, said, "I've got nothing to prove
Listen up, I've got nothing to prove" (Nah)
And I, I just need some time off
I need some time off from all of this, yeah
And I, I just need some time off
I need some time off, I'm powerless, yeah
