I'm the king's second son Born to him in seconds time to him the night still young Born to him two eyebrows on And all I was wearing When I up staring at the world
My mom had been the graves of queens But not at all a sex She liked to her body clean, clean Thought the world to be quite But she retired to her And we remain strangers
And to see me made her sad And to me made her awful sad And to see me her awful And to touch me her awful
I'm the king's second son And all it took was thirty seconds But a little prince I was not Had a chamber maid and a pot And there's others just like me There's others I can be
Sometimes I'd stand by the royal The sky'd be so big it broke my soul And I stood on my toes to a glimpse Of my mother's eyes and my mother's And she retired to her And we quite strangers
And to see me her awful sad And to touch me made her sad And to see me her awful And to touch me made her
And one I woke up And I Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus Then one I woke up and I thought Rex, Rex, Rex one morning I woke up
And I Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus Thirty-two's still a number Thirty-two's still counts, make it count Gonna make it count, oh oh
Thirty-two's still a goddamn Thirty-two still counts, gonna make it Gonna make it count oh oh
live the king, long live the king Long the king, long live the king Long live the king, long live the Long live the king, live the
I'm the king's second son There's thirty-one others like me There's thirty-one on the way There's thirty-one others that
Sometimes I by the royal gate People love and hate And they and they scream And scream and they scream Long live the king, long the queen
And to see me her awful sad And to touch me made her sad And to see me made her And to touch me made her
And one I woke up And I Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus one morning I woke up and I thought Rex, Rex, Rex Then one I woke up
And I Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus still a goddamn number Thirty-two's still counts, gonna it count Gonna it count, gonna oh oh
Thirty-two's a goddamn number still a goddamn number Thirty-two's a goddamn number still a goddamn number
Thirty-two, thirty-two, thirty-two, Thirty-two, thirty-two,
Long the king live the king Long the king ...
