What would you do for a king If He won all the battles He went out to fight And returned as a hero on a starlit night to a cheering crowd... Would it make you proud? And what would you do for a king If He kept every promise that He'd ever made Would you get out the tickertape and lead a parade, a society ball... Or would you care at all? Kings always seemed to me as such grand, imposing men So full of stature, full of power Such great authority in every word they say I never thought I was quite the type But I'd still love to meet one someday So what would you do for a king If He came to your door, would you ask Him in Would you tell Him how much you admired Him Do you think you'd dare Or would you be to scared? Most king's don't seem to know much about the common man So far removed and set apart I cheer with thousands, we blend into a roar Another face in an endless crowd Is that all I really am, just one more... So what would you do for a king If He saw you fishing out by the sea And He walked up to you and said "Follow me - It's time you know" Do you think you'd go? And what would you do for a king If He took off his crown and agreed to die And as you tried to understand it, He looked you in the eye and said, "This is for you" Well, what would you do? (What would you do for a king)
