KING OF EVERYTHING

Music and Lyrics by Treyan Porter

 

[Humperdink]

I have a kingdom over here

But still I want what’s over there

What is wrong with wanting more?

And more, and MORE

 

What should I serve, if not my own?

My life is mine, and mine alone

Of this one fact, I am secure

And furthermore…

 

            I am the king of everything

            At least I should be

            Why doesn’t everybody see?

            Beats me

 

            I will not be second or third

            No runner-up, oh please

            The race, the win, and all the spoils

            It all belongs to me

 

I could live to serve my fellow men

But that would make them lazy and then

How could they serve the greater cause?

MY cause

 

I hear talk of life being worth much more

When lived outside our selfish core

Maybe this thought should give me pause…

NAH!

 

            [Humperdink]

            I am the king of everything

            [Rugen]

            At least you should be

            [Humperdink]

            (I know)

            Why doesn’t everybody see?

            [Yellin]

            Beats me

 

            [Humperdink]

            No, I will not be second or third

            [Rugen]

            No runner-up

            [Humperdink]

            Oh please

            [everyone]

            The race, the win, and all the spoils

            [Humperdink]

            It all belongs to me

          

                        [Humperdink]

                        More and more…I want

                        More and more…I want

                        More and more…I want

                        More and more…’cause…

 

            [Humperdink]

            I am the king of everything

            [Rugen]

            At least you should be

            [Humperdink]

            (I KNOW)

            Why doesn’t everybody see?

            [Rugen]

            (I don’t know)

            [Yellin]

            Beats me

 

            [Humperdink]

            No, I will not be second or third

            [Rugen and Yellin]

            No runner-up

            [Humperdink]

            Oh please

            [everyone]

            The race, the win, and all the spoils

            [Humperdink]

            It all belongs to me

            [Rugen]

            (All belongs to you)

            [Yellin]

            (Yeah)

            [Humperdink]

            It all belongs to me
