The King Is In The Counting House （2007 Remastered Album Version） - The Electric Prunes[00:00:00]

The King is in the counting house[00:00:00]

Counting out his money[00:00:04]

The Queen is in her parlour[00:00:07]

Eating bread and honey[00:00:10]

And in her royal heart of hearts [00:00:13]

She's happy as can be[00:00:16]

Isn't she [00:00:19]

Isn't she [00:00:22]

The King is always working [00:00:25]

Now signing proclamations[00:00:28]

The children see their father's brow[00:00:32]

Knitted by frustrations[00:00:35]

But in his royal heart of hearts [00:00:38]

He serves his family[00:00:41]

Doesn't he [00:00:44]

Doesn't he [00:00:47]

The golden calendar reflects a day[00:00:51]

Of obligations[00:00:55]

The King and Queen will offer[00:00:57]

Love to cold and distant nations[00:00:59]

The children's day goes[00:01:03]

By so fast nobody's thought to miss them[00:01:06]

The golden clock is striking twelve[00:01:10]

Now it's too late to to kiss them [00:01:13]

Though the castle's marble walls[00:01:32]

Don't echo any laughter[00:01:35]

But the family portrait[00:01:38]

Paints them happy ever after[00:01:41]

But in their royal heart of hearts [00:01:44]

They're happy as certainly[00:01:47]

Aren't we [00:01:50]

Aren't we[00:01:52]
