He can only take his throne ...
... once everything out there is known.
Even when he takes a lickin' ...
... his ears, at least, are still a-prickin'!
And if some danger lurks about ...
He'll stand up to it, there is no doubt!
Because he's King of all he sees ...
... his subjects, too, he seeks to please.
And if sometimes he looks up there ...
... it's because he's said a prayer.
He's grateful someone else agrees ...
... that even Kings may be at ease.
