King Of The Kingdom Of Man

Check the covers for spiders
Before you go crawling in bed
You longed to lie down beside her
And bled ideas in her head
You are children of angels
And you're living in sin
Well, they've got just the place for
The kind of trouble you're in

And her hair smells like flowers
You're counting the hours
Between thundershowers
Unleash your new superpowers
Don't be a coward

Did you come to remember?
Or did you come to forget?
You went looking for Jesus
And found the devil instead
So many convictions
About life after death
But you just can't believe in any single one of them

And it's all on your shoulders
It feels like a boulder
And you're just getting older
The universe seems to grow colder
Each time you behold her

Alpha-man, father of everyone's children
The King of the Kingdom of Man
Do you father your sons and your daughters?
All of them follow your every command
You sire them all on your own
Then you kick them all out of your home
Alpha-man, tell all your children to leave you alone!

Alpha-man, tell all your children to leave you alone

Tuck the old folks into their new homes
Watch the skin slip off of their bones
Watch out for pigeons on telephone poles
They will shit all over your clothes

Alpha-man, father of everyone's children
The King of the Kingdom of Man
You father your sons and your daughters
All of them follow your every command
You sire them all on your own
Then you kick them all out of your home
Alpha-man, tell all your children to leave you alone!
