Lyrics:
Let’s make a king
Yeah, let’s make a king
Let’s tie our hands down to the tracks
Let’s make the world look flat
Let’s cut the tongues before they ever learn to sing
Let’s burn the homes to warm our hands
Plant our flags on foreign lands
Let’s leave the fingers and take the rings

Let’s make a king
Let’s make a king

We’ll let’s keep one alive to tell the tale
Let’s lock the doors with nails
Let’s let the necks all snap and let those bodies swing
Let’s turn away from all we had before
‘Cause we’ve been promised so much more
And I just can’t wait to see what this day brings

Let’s make a king
Let’s make a king

Let's shine a single beam of light
Shine it right up into the sky
Let's make a man into the law of the land
And raise him up on high
Let us praise our lord and our savior
And call the votes all in our favor
And anyway they never really meant a thing
Let's break the unions and choke the schools
Give the press a few hard rules
And then the birds will sing on the bright and blessed spring

Let’s make a king
Let’s make a king
