The Once and Future King
[Verse 1]
Well, I guess
This will be dismissed
As bitterness
And sour grapes
[Pre-Chorus]
Champion grudge-bearer
Too much time with my own thoughts
It should be my name on their lips
But it's not
[Chorus]
And I will wait
For my turn to come 'round again
And I will wait
However long it takes
However long it takes
[Verse 2]
See, you're gonna
Be the next big thing
All the young girls
You could ever want
[Pre-Chorus]
I heard your song on the radio
Like a firebrand on my skin
So the war has begun
A pox on your houses
[Chorus]
And I will wait
For my turn to come 'round again
And I will wait
However long it takes
However long it takes
[Bridge]
I say, "Round of applause"; I say, "Round of applause"
(The new king of baloney says whatever he wants)
I say, "Round of applause"; I say, "Round of applause"
(Objection overruled)
Passive yet aggressive
Drunk on schadenfreude
Success has been cruel to me
My time will come again
[Chorus]
And I will wait
For my turn to come 'round again
And I will wait
Ha-ha, oh-oh-oh
Ha-ha, oh, oh-oh-oh
