Written by:Prince And The Revolution[00:00:00]
Once upon a time in the land of sinaplenty[00:00:26]
There lived a king who didn't deserve 2 be[00:00:34]
He knew not where he came from[00:00:42]
Nor where he was going[00:00:44]
He never once said thank u never please[00:00:50]
Now this king he had a subject named electra[00:00:58]
Who loved him with a passion uncontested[00:01:06]
4 Him each day she had a smile[00:01:14]
But it didn't matter[00:01:18]
The king was looking 4 the ladder[00:01:22]
Everybody's looking 4 the ladder[00:01:29]
Everybody wants salvation of the soul[00:01:37]
The steps u take are no easy road[00:01:46]
