If I was king of all the rotten

stealing filth from those forgotten

would you be my queen of this desperate land, do you give a damn?



What if I had to scold you

listen once but never tried and true

What if I had to trade you for another man, do you think I can?



I won't call on the angels no

beating on the line as I turn to amputate...

I'm bleeding on you



What if you were torn in two

what if I wanted to be like you

what if I was high like an aeroplane, would you look at me the same?



I won't call on the angels no

beating on the line as I turn to amputate...

I'm bleeding on you



If we walked side by side

would you step stab my back and kill my pride

or would you fall ahead, or would you move behind,

tell me what's unkind



Now if I was king of all the rotten

stealing filth from those forgotten

would you be my queen of this desperate land, do you think I give a damn?



I won't call on the angels no

beating on the line as I turn to amputate...

I'm bleeding on you
