I'm the thirty 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 I woke up staring at the world
My mom had been around the of queens But not at all a sex She liked to keep her clean, clean the world to be quite obscene But she to her chamber And we remain strangers
And to see me her awful sad And to touch me her awful sad And to see me her awful And to me made her awful
I'm the thirty second son And all it took was seconds time But a spoiled little I was not Had a chamber maid and a pot And there's thirty-one others like me There's others I can be
Sometimes I'd stand by the wall The sky'd be so big that it my soul And I stood on my toes to catch a Of my eyes and my mother's skin And she retired to her And we remain strangers
And to see me her awful sad And to touch me her awful sad And to see me her awful And to touch me her awful
And one I woke up And I thought Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus, Then one I woke up and I thought Rex, Rex, Rex Then one I woke up
And I thought Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus, Thirty-two's still a goddamn Thirty-two's counts, gonna make it count Gonna it count, gonna oh oh
Thirty-two's still a goddamn Thirty-two still counts, gonna make it Gonna make it count oh oh

I'm the king's second son There's thirty-one just like me There's others on the way There's thirty-one others after
Sometimes I stand by the gate People love and hate And they and they scream And they scream and they Long live the king, live the queen
And to see me made her sad And to touch me her awful sad And to see me made her And to me made her awful
And one morning I up And I Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus Then one morning I woke up and I Rex, Rex, Rex one morning I woke up
And I thought Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus, Thirty-two's a goddamn number Thirty-two's still counts, make it count make it count, gonna oh oh
