Well, they elected me    King of the World   I said, "Here's what I'm gonna do   Send everybody over to China   Except for me and you   Strip ourselves naked   Go to Beverly Center   Watch movies and eat Cinnabons"   I think I'm gonna like   Being king of the world   For a change      They said, "As king of the world   You can have anything   Your greedy royal heart desires"   I said, "All I really want   Is some wide open space   Where I can set forest fires   I want peace and quiet   I want nudity   I want sex and wine and love"   They said "So let it be written,   Your highness,   So let it be done"      I am the king   The king of the world   It could have been you   But it's me   I'm suprised you didn't hear about it   It was on the cover of newsweek   November 1993       As king of the world   I'll occasionally go   To China to visit you guys   You don't have to be afraid   I don't need you to bow down   I'm not God   I'm just the king, I realize   Well, it might be nice though   If you'd kiss me feet   And call me, "All knowing leader of men"   If you were king of the world   I'm sure you'd want the same   For yourself      I am the king of the world   King of the world   Can you believe my luck   I'm king of the world
