Heavy is the head that wears the crown All the people came to hear him speak from miles around They hung on every word a song in every sound Heavy is the head that wears the crown He touched the sky to light up all the stars He could snap his fingers and catch lightning in a jar I am you and you are me and we are who we are Touch the sky and light up all the stars All hail the king whose castle's falling down The paper prince who wears a cardboard crown Poor man has his money Rich man has his gold All hail the king whose fortune is his soul He climbed the clouds to heaven's highest hill When you get that high The earth below looks just like a blue pill Gave wind to all his horses and to all his men good will When he climbed down from heaven's highest hill All hail the king whose castle's falling down The paper prince who wears a cardboard crown Poor man has his money Rich man has his gold All hail the king whose fortune is his soul He breathed his last they laid him in the ground False prophets spoke of riches and said all hail to us now The faithful wouldn't listen and they never would bow down He breathed his last they laid him in the ground All hail the king whose castle's falling down The paper prince who wears a cardboard crown Poor man has his money Rich man has his gold All hail the king whose fortune is his soul
