作曲 : Elton John & Bernie Taupin
No man's a jester playing shakespeare
Round your throne room floor
While the jugglers act is danced upon
The crown that you once wore
And sooner or later
Everybodys kingdom must end
And Im so afraid your courtiers
Cannot be called best friends
Caesars had your troubles
Widows had to cry
While mercenaries in cloisters sing
And the king must die
Some men are better staying sailors
Take my word and go
But tell the ostler that his name was
The very first they chose
And if my hands are stained forever
And the altar should refuse me
Would you let me in would you let me in would you let me in
Should I cry sanctuary
Caesars had your troubles
Widows had to cry
While mercenaries in cloisters sing
And the king must die the king must die
No mans a jester playing shakespeare
Round your throne room floor
While the jugglers act is danced upon
The crown that you once wore
The king is dead the king is dead
The king is dead the king is dead
Long live the king
