IF I WERE THE KING (OF AS FAR AS I SEE)
jaar: 2000

If I were King here, there 'd be some decorations
and those who up til now had enjoyed the highest stations
probably would not even make the news
especially for the people who take care of all our old ones
I'd organize awards and I'd make them solid gold ones
and special titles of nobility
if I were the King of as far as I see

Those who brave the wind and rain to labor in construction
of nursing homes and hospitals will need no introduction
they'll be made CEO of what they choose
I'd name the garbagemen Ecology Directors
and the bakers would be made Official Sweets Inspectors
the farmers would receive The Silver Pea
if I were the King of as far as I see

If I were the King here, I'd be fair but impassioned
I'd make those silly VIP rooms so old-fashioned
that would be aVery Unimportant Thing to lose
and for myself a palace would be overstated
from my house where no hunting parties congregated
I'd rule my domain, steady as could be
if I were the King of as far as I see

If I were the King here I would stop discrimination
I would like to see its complete elimination
it's far too cruel and ugly to excuse
I'd like to show the people what it is we're made of
feeling you are different is not a thing to be afraid of
maybe then everybody would be free
if I were the King of as far as I see
if I were the King of as far as I see
if I were the King
if I were the King
of as far as I see
