Off With His Head

Music: Felix Clement 
Lyrics: Felix Clement

Grungy white line

Now it's harder than you think, you wouldn't believe

Try’na measure up all the wants and the needs

Of so many ungrateful plebs

Can’t you see with the mood I’m in, exactly what you’re gonna get!

 

Cuz when they get a bit too annoying for me

When they’re asking for mercy, I give’em som’a this instead

 

[chorus]

Off with his head!

If they look slightly weirdly at me

(Off with his head)

If they cough slightly too loudly

(Off with his head)

If their daughter's slightly too ugly

(Off with his head)

If they don't like the songs that are written for me

Off with his head!

 

Now it's harder than you think, you wouldn't believe

Try’na live up to the legacy of Henry V

Yeah, the pressures of power are getting too much for me

And with it grow the chances of me ordering the permanent vacating of your head from your body.

 

Cuz when they get a bit too annoying for me

When they’re asking for mercy, I give’em som’a this instead

 

[chorus]

Off with his head!

If they look slightly weirdly at me

(Off with his head)

If they cough slightly too loudly

(Off with his head)

If their daughter's slightly too ugly

(Off with his head)

If they don't like the songs that are written for me

Off with his head!

 

(instrumental)

 

Off with his head!

Off with his head!

Off with his head!

Off with his head!

Off with his head!

Off with his head!

Off with his head!

Off with his-

 

[chorus]

Off with his head!

If they look slightly weirdly at me

(Off with his head)

If they cough slightly too loudly

(Off with his head)

If their daughter's slightly too ugly

(Off with his head)

If they don't like the songs that are written for me

My supremacy

Will be felt by a sentiment thus said

 

 

Off with his head!
