Regicide
Patrick Cannell © 1999
The King of Comedy, we'll get you in for free.
Come on and hold my beer, 'cause I am feeling queer
And there's a film to see.
Can't you see the thorn that's sticking in my side.
Can't you see I'm hoping for the regi-
Hoping for the regicide.
The King of Rock and Roll and all the tunes he stole.
He went and picked my brain and left me with a pain,
That's why they stopped his dole.
Can't you see the thorn that's sticking in my side.
Can't you see I'm hoping for the regi-
Hoping for the regicide.
Due homage paid to deviants and misfits.
Yes sir, I'm afraid they're great in their own way.
The King of Tragedy is into pvc,
An actor or a clown until they send him down
To get a warranty.
Can't you see the thorn that's sticking in my side.
Can't you see I'm hoping for the regi-
Hoping for the regicide.
Due homage paid to deviants and misfits.
Yes sir, I'm afraid they're great in their own way.
