[Verse]
I treated you just like a queen
And you treated me like a fool
You expected me to bough down
Like I was someone to rule
[Verse]
You always act like royalty
And I’m the jester in your court
You took pleasure in my pain
Like it was your favorite sport
[Verse].
But I’m throwing down this scepter
And I’m picking up my crown
It’s time for me to be the king
And you’re just a peasant now
[Chorus]
While you enjoyed your feast
I was expected to eat cake
You were too busy having it all
To realize what was at stake
You always looked down on me
From up in your ivory tower
Well your castle’s about to fall
Because now I have the power
So prepare to kiss the ring
As I sit upon this throne
The time has come for you to bough
Or be banished to live alone
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse]
It’s time for me to take over
Your rule has come to an end
You can call me Henry the eighth
And you’re cut off like Ann Boleyn
[Verse]
You can call it revolution
Or you can call it a coup
But just know your reign is over
And there’s nothing you can do
[Chorus]
While you enjoyed your feast
I was expected to eat cake
You were too busy having it all
To realize what was at stake
You always looked down on me
From up in your ivory tower
Well your castle’s about to fall
Because now I have the power
So prepare to kiss the ring
As I sit upon this throne
The time has come for you to bough
Or be banished to live alone
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Your monarchy has fallen
There’s an uprising at your gate
Don’t you try and sign a treaty
Because the time is just too late
[Chorus]
While you enjoyed your feast
I was expected to eat cake
You were too busy having it all
To realize what was at stake
You always looked down on me
From up in your ivory tower
Well your castle’s about to fall
Because now I have the power
So prepare to kiss the ring
As I sit upon this throne
The time has come for you to bough
Or be banished to live alone
[Final Chorus]
While you enjoyed your feast
I was expected to eat cake
You were too busy having it all
To realize what was at stake
You always looked down on me
From up in your ivory tower
Well your castle’s about to fall
Because now I have the power
So prepare to kiss the ring
As I sit upon this throne
The time has come for you to bough
Or be banished to live alone
