The Byrds - Long Live the King lyrics

The first thing that they tell you about is that you will be king A priest at least they tell you and then that everything will be alright at last You will finally be cast into your rightful throne They got it all down cold Next thing that they tell you is not to be afraid You think you're better than the others somewhat fine and brave They lead astray you could be up there all alone A star they say a million miles away from home An empty space is that the place you wanted The last thing that they tell you about they ask you will it hurt They said sell what you can boy get out while the getting's good And they whisper in the evening all around town Oh humpty dumpty the king is falling down
