What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Across from me sat the new emperor, hardly thirteen
2
And I asked him why he cried
3
"No one stays around anymore, I cannot guess why
4
In my world, oh, they should try"
5
I asked "How loyal are your subjects?"
6
"Not," was the child king's reply; rarely would they comply
7
"I always search for new subjects, still I'm loathsome to try
8
If they served me too long they would fortify
9
"With all of my benevolence
10
There's still no obedience
11
Or is it just coincidence
12
That everyone here's indifferent?
13
So I must move on.
14
"So I fear a dependence,
15
Between my subjects and I
16
So if they leave me I won't die
17
"I always search for new subjects
18
Still I'm loathsome to try
19
In my world they should try
20
"With all of my benevolence
21
There's still no obedience
22
Or is it just coincidence
23
That everyone here's indifferent?
24
So I must move on."
25
...[sporadic laughter]...
26
...I'm sorry, that was bad...
27
...I don't know how to laugh, it's hard when somebody wants you to...
