They told us we could live like kings
Under the thumb and on our knees
Fat stacks of cash for you to claim
Lead you along a golden string
Get up and stand your ground
We don't need to bow down
We could live like kings
In our own way
There's more than we're allowed
The verge of a breakdown
We could live like kings
Ain't no mistake
Enter the new technology
We'd given almost everything
Gave you a crown of sticks and heath
Look better than the royalty
Get up and stand your ground
We don't need to bow down
We could live like kings
In our own way
There's more than we're allowed
The verge of a breakdown
We could live like kings
Ain't no mistake
Get up and stand your ground
We don't need to bow down
We could live like kings
In our own way
There's more than we're allowed
The verge of a breakdown
We could live like kings
By the daybreak
