LYRICS:
Welcome to the nightmare where villains wear the crowns
Fools rule a broken world and fear grows all around
There’s a bad king, a dreadful puppet on a string

He pretends to be a champion of the common man
Wants more division in is lost and riven land
He plays with real lives in the darkest game of life

His greedy eyes... looks insane, frozen smile like he’s in pain
He doesn’t count... the human cost but only money made or lost, yeah

(King for a day)
He kills the truth and looks away
(King for a day)
Lives like the world would end today
(King for a day)
What do you hide, why do you lie?
Who made the rules for this game?
Who is paying your champagne?
All the mercy in the world cannot save you anymore
King for a day

He knows how to justify and how to feed the myths
How to glorify the lies and hide the truth
He talks a lot but his mouth is full of empty words

He has the right friends making shady inside deals
Before the story ends we will be out of tears
Fools give the answer, wise men don’t even try

The time has come... to dethrone him but there’s a new clone stepping in, yeah
Just more scum... another greedy, rotten puppet on a string, yeah!

(King for a day)
He kills the truth and looks away
(King for a day)
Lives like the world would end today
(King for a day)
What do you hide, why do you lie?
Who made the rules for this game?
Who is paying your champagne?
All the mercy in the world cannot save you anymore
King for a day

(I own the seas)
(I have the earth on its knees)
(Give me another day)
(And I’ll take your future away)
(Just vote for me, again)

(King for a day)
He kills the truth and looks away
(King for a day)
Lives like the world would end today
(King for a day)
What do you hide, why do you lie?
Who made the rules for this game?
Who is paying your champagne?
All the mercy in the world cannot save you anymore
King for a day
