Lyrics

JESTER ON THE THRONE

Hey, you've kicked the wrong can down the road
Things change when you place a Jester on the throne.
Like Bishop Isley someone stands before the door
With those eyes on the world
Always wanting to be more
Always have to have more

Now look what you've done my silly child
Things break when you knock the china on the ground
The boats have slipped away in silence from the shore
Gone ever more
What when the waters rise again?
When there’s no place to stand?

Jokers, Jesters, Dunces, Fools and you
Jokers, Jesters, Dunces, Fools and you

Just what did you expect for all your luck?
What’s gained, when all the world has run amok?
A shroud of ash has settled over every home
Beneath the Eyes of the World
Seeping underneath the doors
Creeping over the floors

Jokers, Jesters, Dunces, Fools and you
Jokers, Jesters, Dunces, Fools and you

Things change when you place a Jester on the throne.
