He wanted to be accepted By those he had rejected Thought the poppers would feel blessed If allowed just one day of rest Thought they'd savor the King's scraps Even if it meant scrounging around like rats Thought they'd never dare complain For even one day of his reign Wasn't the King surprised To see the commoners got wise They stormed the castle through And found him hiding in a shoe Everyone laughed, what a tiny little thing! Who knew you'd have to be a mouse to be bigger than the King

The King
He wanted to be accepted By those he had rejected Thought the poppers would feel blessed If allowed just one day of rest Thought they'd savor the King's scraps Even if it meant scrounging around like rats Thought they'd never dare complain For even one day of his reign Wasn't the King surprised To see the commoners got wise They stormed the castle through And found him hiding in a shoe Everyone laughed, what a tiny little thing! Who knew you'd have to be a mouse to be bigger than the King
