The journal of the king
Was filled with the most wonderful things
That ever happened to him
In his life and in his dreams
He wrote of being free
He kept it under lock and key
If they knew what he believed
It'd bring the country to its knees
Because he knew that he was over
Before he even began
He saw that his days were numbered
In a battle without a plan
The journal of the king
Was published by his enemies
At the university
They couldn't resist the irony
He knew that he was over
Before he even began
He saw that his days were numbered
In a battle without a plan
Yes...
The journal of the king
Was a captivating read
And the king, he was relieved
Until it was read by the queen
Because he knew that he was over
Before he even began
He saw that his days were numbered
In a battle without a plan
