Who walks the king’s road? (Who fears a king?)
Who fears a king? (Fuck the king!)
Fuck the king!

Said a clip-clop, the cloppy to the clippy
The clip, clip-a-clop and you don’t stop rockin’
Got more gallop than a ray’s got manta
Giddy up y’all let’s do the canter

It rubs the lotion on its skin
Else it gets the hose again

Judy wrote the saddest song
She showed it to a boy in school today
Judy, where did you go wrong
You used to make me smile when I was down

He told me, “I’ve seen it rise
But it always falls
I’ve seen them come, I seen ’em go”
He said: “All things pass into the night”
And I said:

Judy was a teenage rebel
She did it with a boy when she was young
She gave herself to books and learning
She gave herself to being number one
Judy, I don’t know you if you’re gonna show me everything
Judy, I don’t know you if you’re gonna show me everything

Oh, no, sir

Judy got a book at school
She went under the covers with her torch
She fell asleep till it was morning
She dreamt about the girl who stole a horse
Judy never felt so good except when she was sleeping
Judy never felt so good except when she was sleeping, yeah

I must say you’re wrong
I must disagree, oh, no, sir, I must say you’re wrong
Won’t you listen to me?

He told me, “I’ve seen it all before, I’ve been there
I’ve seen my hopes and dreams lying on the ground
I’ve seen the sky just begin to fall”
He said: “All things pass into the night”
And I said: “Oh, no, sir, I must say you’re wrong
I must disagree, oh, no, sir, I must say you’re wrong
Won’t you listen to me?”

If you’re ever feeling blue
Then write another song about your real skin horses
Write a song about your real skin horses
Call it “Edith and the Real Skin Horses”
Call it “Edith and the Real Skin Horses”

Your dream of horses, da, da, dam, ba
Your dream of horses, da, da, dam, ba
Your dream of horses, la, da, dam, ba
Your dream of horses

Do the canter

Goodbye horses, I’m dying over you
Goodbye horses, I’m dying, dying, dying over you
