We Have No Kings!

Liner Notes

He Who Must Not Be Named™ posted an image of himself on the official website with a crown on his head and the text "LONG LIVE THE KING" on it. Ummmm....NO! Not bowing the knee to wannabe kings. Not happening.

EZ Drummer, Jazz Bass, guitars, cakehole noises

Lyrics

You’re so full
Of yourself
Can’t think
Of anyone else
It’s always
All about you
And what your chumps
Can do for you

(PC)
But you’ll never be
Ruler of anything
Our birthright - we have no kings

You wanna rule
With an iron fist
But there’s something
You may have missed
We fought a war
To extricate
Ourselves from
A monarchy state

You might have flunked
History
But one fact remains - we have no kings

Just in case you didn’t get the memo
Here’s an unfriendly reminder - we have no kings!

You’ve got the backing of
Rapacious billionaires
Oppress the people
Without a care
But you’ve got no brain
You’ve got no heart
Just a craven soulless
Broligarch

Free people shout
Free people sing
Free people know - we have no kings!

Here’s another reminder in case you missed the first one
Here it is again - we have no kings!

Free people shout
Free people sing
Free people know - we have no kings!

We have no kings!

At first I thought I was getting a Stones' Paint It Black thing but it turned into a full on punk rock jam! I love how you say - check it out right here - and break into the solo. I also love the 60's era soul feel: MC5, Hendrix. Keep on rockin'!

@ampersandman 1d

Love it! I rarely heard you create such energetic music. The proper pace for a rage song.

@mahtowin 1d

Wow! This rocks! Clear statement powerfully presented!
Love it! 👍

so many elements of pissed-off music here, from the slashing guitars, the shouted refrain, the hard stacatto of the verses...all adds up to a rousing protest song.

@coolparadisoMod 2d

this is full of grit and angst and I can see why! you've nailed this! a belter.

@tamsnumber4 2d

You might have flunked history...YES, a huge flunky of everything. This ROCKS and I think what everything is thinking....at least I am....Fab song!!!

@richaaaay 2d

That was awesome!!! Dig the attitude and kick A$$ bass and electric guitars. Hilarious and not at the same time. I should blast this out a large speaker on top of my car every day...
