OATH OF ALLEGIANCE I swear an oath of allegiance For the good of humanity to everyone and everything And if I could be king for a day For the good of our society I’d deconstruct the monarchy A toxic constitution with An abusive history For the divine right of kings To create an impoverished majority And if I could be king for a day I’d apologise for everything I’d swear an oath to common people To dismantle this hypocrisy And all of the rights That come with my crown The Blood on my hands That life handed down The surfs and the suffering Of feudal society The thieves and the thievery The slaves and the slavery The bricks and the mortar Of the church and the slaughter I’d apologise for history And tear apart the monarchy I would thrown myself down Prostrate on the floor A figure of division No more If I could be King for a day I’d aplogise for the hypocrisy I’d swear an oath to all of my people To dismantle the monarchy If I could be King for a day I’d aplogise for the hypocrisy I’d swear an oath to all of my people To dismantle the monarchy The king was in his counting house Counting out our money The maid was in the poorhouse Dreaming of bread and honey While most of us toil well the King he relaxes He has maximum wealth for zero taxes Landlords of aristocracy They don’t mean that much to me These foolish clowns in stolen crowns Monarchs of hypocrisy They stole their lands and stole their riches Their hand me down gowns with silken stitches Hey sisters Hey brothers Hey sisters Hey brothers We don’t need this institution Hey Sisters Hey brothers Hey sisters Hey brothers We don’t need this constitution Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh We don’t need this monarchist groove Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh We don’t need this monarchist groove We don’t need this monarchist groove We don’t need this monarchist groove If I could be King for a day I’d aplogise for the hypocrisy I’d swear an oath to all of my people To dismantle the monarchy

about

The king was in his counting house
Counting out our money
The maid was in the poorhouse
Dreaming of bread and honey
While most of us toil
The King he relaxes
He has maximum wealth
For zero taxes
