Pay him tribute every time
I'm not the one that hopes they'll remember
What he's ever done for you?
It really was not all that long ago
Wherever he walks rose beds be laid
Support your local emperor
Royalty speaks, you then reply
To meow for him, to meow for him
From his fingertips shall flow the wine
To meow for him, to meow for him
Let it be known he holds your fate
But a rodent's always looking for some cat he can stalk
Wherever he walks rose beds be laid
What he's ever done for you?
Tell him when he speaks the air is sweet
I'm not the one that they'll likely forget
Someday he may chance to wonder why
So that he may always feel secure
But could you tell me
Someday he may find his throne is cold
In the vast empire that he made
I'm not the one that needed an army
I'm not the one that they'll likely forget
And with the ears of the bat and the eyes of a hawk
It seems no one's gonna walk where he's willing to walk
I'm not the one that needed respect
It seems no one's gonna walk where he's willing to walk
I'm not the one that hopes they'll remember
You let your heart will tell you so
From his fingertips shall flow all the wine
Someday he may find his throne is cold
I'm not the one that needed an army
I'm not the one that needed respect
Tell him when he speaks the air is sweet
Let it be known he holds your fate
Remember once when you were young
And with the ears of the bat and the eyes of a hawk
You reached out your hand and it was met
So bow your head, don't meet his eyes
You can see that in the end, it's just a little bit of talk
But a rodent's always looking for some cat he can stalk
You can see in the end, it's just a little bit of talk
But could you tell me
