The King Cometh
[Spoken]
There are those who say that a young boy will grow into an old man in nary the blink of an eye
And there are those who say your hair and fingernails continue to grow long after you die
And well maybe that's true and maybe the King wouldn't be so pretty to look at right now
That's if any amount of sedatives can ever kill a legend
Whether he's walking down lover's lane on some moonless night peeking in steamed up windows
Or maybe, maybe looking over the shoulder of an adolescent boy combing his hair in the mirror
I know, tonight, the King is alive!
[Sung]
His hair is so black (his sideburns so big), but his skin is so white (tell us how white)
A hundred million people praying in a line for their fallen King tonight
And seventeen was the number of the medications they're there in his royal stool
A king-sized diaper. "Honey who am I talking to?"
The King has come, the King is soiling himself in my heart tonight
So I know he'll never die
[Spoken]
The little red sports car spun out of control, breaking through the guard rail and crashing onto the rocks below
A fireball not unlike a nuclear explosion, but a moment later, the King stepped unhurt from the flames (several times in a row don't you know)
One arm around a beautiful blonde and holding a big bottle filled with pills of all kinds
And he winked and he waved and he shook when he laughed and he said, "I'm alive, I'm alive."
And the King shall come (several times) and the King shall come when the King comes (several times)
And the King, and the King shall come when the King comes
And the King King King shall come when the King comes
And the King shall come when the King comes
And the King King King shall come around when the King comes...
