Lyrics
There’s people on the run
Too many people carry guns
And no one has a clue
What to do and what needs to be undone....right?
So they’re kicking out the king
They never liked the way he sings
He never kept a promise
The promises he made they didn’t mean a thing
Well, we liked the way that he smiled
But now the smile is gone
His attitude seems rather hostile

If we sit here in silence
It wouldn’t do us no good
Can’t stop the violence
But there must be something we can do
Gotta bridge the distance
Till we can hear them sing
Here comes the piece de resistance
Oh boy, they’re kicking out the king

Some say we shouldn’t interfere
But they still need a puppeteer
So we’d better stay in charge
We’d better keep a tab on domestic atmospheres....right ?
We don’t think it’s cute at all
What’s going on behind those walls
Our armed forces standing by waiting for an invitation to the ball
If it’s genocide we suspect
We may decide it’s time to tell the king to go to hell ourselves

In fact, if we sit here in silence
It wouldn’t do us no good
Can’t stop the violence
But there must be something we can do
Gotta bridge the distance
Till we can hear them sing
Here comes the piece de resistance
Oh boy, they’re kicking out the king

When he’s gone, we gotta make plans how to move on
When he’s gone, the stage is set for another clown
Who’s gonna be the new king in town ?

Instr. part;

Don’t we all share the same dream
A perfect world in which we all could join together as a team

If we sit here in silence
....
