From the recording The Front Lines of Good Times Vol. I
Lyrics
Three kings sat on a throne
Each one wishin’ he could rule alone
And each one a them would look at the others
Say “I can do better than these motherfuckers”
One a them kings loved silver and gold
And the other one he loved jewels
One a them kings loved women and wine
Thought the other two a couple of fools, man
Things got heated, things got rough
And push came down to shove
And he said “Everybody wanna spend they money
on gettin’ drunk and makin’ love!”
Three kings started to think
That the other two had to go
So at dinner time, they all drank the wine
And they all fell to the floor
Three Kings started to think
That the other two had to go
So at dinner time, they all drank the wine
And they all fell to the floor
The moral of the story, boys and girls
Is that power ain’t nuthin’ but a hassle
And though it’s good to be king
There is a such thing
As too many kings in the god damn castle
