Have you heard the news today?
They killed a king, took him away
What vengeful wrath will we endure
When news does reach the Heaven's door?
Hear the whispers on the breeze
Telling you of what will be
Listen Lord, please hear our song
To kill a king is it so wrong?
Let's cut off the figurehead
Let freedom reign for man instead
The land belongs to just a few
Who made this rule God, was it you?
My family are skin and bone
While rich man dines in splendid home
Why favour them? What do you say?
When lords and ladies play away
The fornicate all day and night
Then tell us how to live our lives
Hear the whispers on the breeze
Telling you of what will be
Listen Lord, please hear our song
To kill a king is it so wrong?
Let's cut off the figurehead
Let freedom reign for man instead
Have you heard the news today?
They killed a king, took him away
What vengeful wrath will we endure
When news does reach the Heaven's door?
The land belongs to just a few
Who made this rule God, was it you?
My family are skin and bone
While rich man dines in splendid home
