Make me a rendevous, and keep me alive, Point me away from you, and hope I arrive, Put up a monument, remember my name, Will you shine up my memory, when it's all that remains? Build me a castle and throw a parade, Put my name in stone so the words won't fade, Start a religion and name it for me, Build me a city and give me the key, I'm King for a Day, I can do no wrong, I'm King for a Day, 'Til the next one comes along, Heroes are wonderful... I'm forced to admit, But out here past the Sun, That doesn't help me a bit, When you wake up tomorrow, I'll be light years away, But you'll find some other hero to be King for a day. Build me a castle and throw a parade, Put my name in stone so the words won't fade, Start a Religion and name it for me, Build me a city and give me the key, I'm King for a Day, I can do no wrong, I'm King for a Day, 'Til the next one comes along, King for a Day! You are a King for a Day, You are the King for a Day, King for a Day... King for a Day... King For a Day... King for a Day... Build me a castle and throw a parade, Put my name in stone so the words won't fade, Start a Religion and name it for me, Build me a city and give me the key, I'm King for a Day, I can do no wrong, I'm King for a Day, 'Til the next one comes along, King for a Day! King for a Day! King for a Day! King for a Day!
