The king puts on his raiment
And surveys the royal scene
And tries to put his finger on
The source of all his ennui
But when something goes, its gone, you know
Starts at the top, spreads down
Just check out the faded bodywork
Beneath his rusted crown
Theyre waiting for impeachment
But they cant see the day
The queen cant give him any heirs
The word is hes to blame
So he beheads her for amusements
And now hes quoting nietzsche
Youd think that he would have known
She was his one redeeming feature
But the king isnt dead, the kings dead boring
Thats the song that the millions sing
You name it, hes lost it, he lacks everything
The king is dead boring
He used to be a don juan
Now hes just the royal slut
Knocking up the servant girls
Waking up a half-cut
He gets a chance to win them back
But gives them some old spiel
And all they sees the ghost
Of his former ex-appeal
But the king isnt dead, the kings dead boring
Thats the song that his minions sing
You name it, hes lost it, he lacks everything
The king is dead boring
They used to sing long live the king
He was the man with everything
But now they shout
Get that dull bastard out
He used to be so carnaby
So out of all our leagues
Now its all that he can do
To zip up his fatigues
If only he could make excuses
Engage with us somehow
But effort is so out of place
And failures not allowed
Because the king isnt dead, the kings dead boring
Thats the song that the millions sing
You name it, hes lost it, he lacks everything
The king is dead boring
John Wesley Harding is the stage name of Robert Allen Zimmerman, better known as Bob Dylan. The album "John Wesley Harding", released in 1967, marks a turning point in his musical career. After the explosion of folk rock and the social protests of the 1960s, Dylan moves away from more electric and engaged sounds to embrace a more introspective and minimalist country-folk style. The album features songs like "All Along the Watchtower", "The Ballad of Frankie Lee and Judas Priest" and "I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine", which reflect a more personal and poetic approach, with lyrics often dark and enigmatic. The influence of country music is evident in simple arrangements and catchy melodies. John Wesley Harding represents a transitional phase for Dylan, marking the beginning of a musical journey that will lead him to explore new genres and sounds.
