The first thing that they tell you Is that you will be king A priest at least they tell you And that then everything Will be alright at last You will finally be cast Into your rightful throne They've got it all down cold Next thing that they tell you Is not to be afraid Think you're better than the others Somewhat fine and brave They lead astray You could be up there all alone A star they say A million miles away from home An empty space Is that the place you wanted? The last thing that they tell you about Is they ask you "Will it hurt?" They said,"Sell what you can, boy Get out while the getting's good" And they whisper in the evening Now, all around town They said, "Woo, Humpty Dumpty The king is falling down" I said,"Just like Humpty Dumpty (All the king's horses The king is falling down" (And all the king's men) I said, "Ooh, Humpty Dumpty now (Could not put old Humpty Dumpty now) The king is falling down" (Back together again) I said,"Oh, the king is falling down" (All the king's horses and all the king's men) I said,"Oh, the king is falling down" (Could not put old Humpty Dumpty now back together again) I said,"Oh, the king is falling down" (All the king's horses and all the king's men) I said,"Oh, the king is falling down" (Could not put old Humpty Dumpty now back together again) I said,"Oh, the king is falling down" (All the king's horses and all the king's men) I said,"Oh, the king is falling down" (Could not put old Humpty Dumpty now back together again)
