Marilyn Manson - Slave Only Dreams To Be King
The human Will, that force unseen,
The offspring of a deathless Soul,
Can hew the way to any goal,
Though walls of granite intervene.
Be not impatient in delay,
But wait as one who understands;
When spirit rises and commands,
The gods are ready to obey.
[Verse 1:]
Take my money like an ugly bee,
Covered in my honey, too dumb to see,
My Fibonacci blinded by your jealousy.
I'm happy to pull my veins out and braid a rope,
I don't need hope to know that you'd die slow,
I'm happy to pull my veins out and braid a rope,
I don't need hope to know that you'd die slow.
[Hook:]
You are what you beat, yeah!
You are what you beat, yeah!
[Chorus:]
And then we met our brand new parents,
But they didn't know it yet,
So we chanted, “Wed, wed, wed!”
But they didn't know they were dead,
Didn't know they were dead.
[Verse 2:]
Then the witch tied her fruit to a stick
When our coin was looking too thin,
It's like a winter in Hades, we drooled for the ladies
As if the apple was owned by God.
[Chorus:]
And then we met our brand new parents,
But they didn't know it yet,
So we chanted, “Wed, wed, wed!”
But they didn't know they were dead,
Didn't know they were dead.
[Bridge:]
Slave never dreams to be free,
Slave only dreams to be King.
Slave never dreams to be free,
Slave only dreams to be King.
[Chorus:]
And then we met our brand new parents,
But they didn't know it yet,
So we chanted, “Wed, wed, wed!”
But they didn't know they were dead,
Didn't know they were dead.
