AND JIM CUMMINGS

I KNOW THAT YOUR POWERS OF RETENTION

ARE AS WET ASA WARTHOG’S BACKSIDE

BUT THICK AS YOU ARE,PAY ATTENTION

MY WORDS ARE A MATTER OF PRIDE

IT’S CLEAR FROM YOUR VACANT EXPRESSIONS

THE LIGHTS ARE NOT ALL ON UPSTAIRS

BUT WE’RE TALKING KINGS AND SUCCESSIONS

EVEN YOU CAN’T BE CAUGHT UNAWARES

SO PREPARE FOR A CHANCE OF A LIFETIME

BE PREPAEED FOR SENSATIONAL NEWS

A SHINING NEW ERA

IS UPTOEING NEARER

AND WHERE DO WE FEAURE?

JUST LISTEN TO TEACHER

I KNOW IT SOUNDS SORDID

BUT YOU’LL BE REWARDED

WHEN AT LAST I AM GIVEN MY DUES!

AND INPJUSTICE DELICIONUSLY SQUARED

BE PREPARED!

IT’S GREAT THAT WE’LL SOON BE CONNEVTED

WITH A KING WHO’KK BE ALL-TIME ADORED

OF COURSE,QUID PRO QUO,YOU’RE EXPECTED

TO TAKE CERTAIN DUTIES ON BOARD

THE FUTERE IS LITTERED WITH PRIZES

AND THOUGH I’M THE MAIN ADDRESSEE

THE POINT THAT I MUST EMPHASIZE IS

YOU WON’T GET A SNIFF WITHOUT ME

SO PREPARE FOR THE COUP OF THE CENTURY

BE PREPAERED FOR THE MURKISEST SCAM

METIVULOUS PLANNING

TENACITY SPANNING

DECADES OF DENIAL

IS SIMPLY WHY I’LL

BE KING UNDISPUTED

RESPECTED,SALUTED

AND SEEN FOR THE WONDER I AM

YES,MY TEETH AND AMBITIONS ARE BARED

BE PREPARED!

YES ,OUR TEETH AND AMBITIONS ARE BARED

BE PREPARED!
