the happy king - music box (1970's uk group) lyrics
once there lived a happy king
so the story i’ve been told
he built himself a little town
and he lived till he got very old
lived till he got very old
and the people who lived in this town
they were happy, so they claimed
they laughed and danced all day and night
and through the howling wind and rain
through the howling wind and rain
and then one day, disaster struck
it was on a sunny day
a storm rose from satters land
and it blew the little town away
blew the little town away
and the only two who did survivе
there was georgе and mary paul
they were sad because their king was dead
and they’d also lost their little home
also lost their little home
so in the village market square
they put a monument which read
long live the king of happiness
but the king was just as happy dead
king was just as happy dead
and the people, they came from miles around
just to see this wondrous thing
dedicated to the one
that they called the very happy king
called the very happy king
had some, they came to look at it
and others, they came to laugh
then came the us tourist boys
just to take a little photograph
take a little photograph
and the children there, they bored with him
only failed to understand
for the smeared it with their lollipops
and with their little grubby hands
with their little grubby hands
oh, oh
oh
yes, in the village market square
they put a monument which read
long live the king of happiness
although the king was just as happy dead
king was just as happy dead
i said the king was just as happy dead
king was just as happy dead
