lyrics

Snatch the fool's tongue
Cut it out of its house
Teach him to be honest
Before he opens his mouth
Grab the king's crown
Rip it from his scalp
So he'll learn to be grateful
Before he gets help

Among the royalty, misguided loyalty
Tainted bloodline and guilty swine
Strings on every finger
How can you watch your puppets dance?
It's been an endless reign
We've given you every chance
When you look in the mirror
What does your conscience look like?
How does it feel to see the blood that's on your hands?
The plague has left the streets
it's knocking at your door
The rats can smell your filth
They're coming through the floor

High time someone put you in your place

The curtain will fall
You'll stumble from your throne
The archers are waiting
