The Handsome Family - The King Of Everything Lyrics

The Handsome Family Lyrics

"The King Of Everything"

See the grey dove
Up in the green elm tree
Raising his feathers
Shaking out his wings
High up in the leaves
He calls across the trees
Doesn't care who hears him
The sky is his

He's the king, the king of everything
He's the king, the king of everything

He's the king, the king of everything
He's the king, the king of everything

He's the king, the king of everything
He's the king, the king of everything

Cat in the tall grass
Teeth a-chattering
He'll catch that bird
So high above his reach
And me in my chair
As the pills reach my brain
I call out to the bees
Make honey from my pain

I'm the king, the king of everything
I'm the king, the king of everything

I'm the king, the king of everything
I'm the king, the king of everything
