Hail to the ruling king
The torturous flaming blazes sing
The fall of truth to royalty
Be true and show your loyalty
Hail to the ruling king
Murderous betrayers bring
The dogs of war let lose en mass
Resistance strong but not to last
Hail to the ruling king
On your knees and kiss his ring
You can climb but he sits higher
Serve him true or face the fire
Hail to the ruling king
The war and famine he will bring
His people starved, begin to fade
He’s chased them all into the grave
Hail to the ‘ruling’ king
Not ruling over anything
His people lost, dead and gone
Yet won’t admit that he was wrong.
Hail to the foolish king
Devils dance and angels sing
As he falls from his golden throne
He’ll watch the flames consume his home
