Guess I got lucky
That God didn't take me away
Administered to by flunkies
And baptised every day
But I think I've got it figured
I've fallen into hell somehow
So tell those vacant visitors
That this is my kingdom nowThey line the hallways
A colonnade of bones
I pull their strings sideways
And wheel them about in their thrones
And I know this can't be paradise
That much the angels will allow
So tell those shuffing shadows
That this is my kingdom now
I was sure that I could hear applause
And that I should take a bow
But no-one seems to care in here
That this is my kingdom nowGuess I got lucky
That God didn't take me away
I motion like a monkey
And hope somebody sees me today
And the peasants from the village
They have brought their horse and plough
So I turn my face to the radio
And say 'this is my kingdom now'
And my daughter looks so queenly
As her fingers feather my brow
And the crown, it fits so keenly
'Cos this is my kingdom - now.
