Everything changed the day he gazed upon her cunning
Come hither smile, it set his ego off a' gunning
With dance and wine and idle time, she kept him coming
And so it was the king he fell for Annie Boleyn
She "the most happy" gripped his ego and devoured
the limits of his life of faith and given honor
Katherine forced from all her privilege and power
while Anne she raises up while all around her cower
And away she goes to hold her own.
Same ol', same ol'... tripping ego.
-She know that Ego- it won't take no
-So she go and grab on - and won't let go
-But she know that Ego - it must hold more
-So she rock and she roll right up upon that throne
With the crown to justify whatever they deemed treason
Anne and Henry sought a path of steady ego feeding
and heads they rolled along, they rolled along with reason
though this she would regret, when Anne came round beseeching
She fed him fable although he was slow to notice
and w/ still no son, he set to redefine his conscious
while she kissed his lips, he conjured up her coffin
and set to rise above all that Anne had cost him
And away he go to hold his own.
Same ol', same ol'... tripping ego.
-He know that Ego- can take no more
-So he go and turn on - his queen 'come whore
-He know that Ego - it must move on
-And so on, he boast "her head will roll"
... So Henry he let loose that ego she'd taunted
and Annie she falls from all that grace that she wanted
For cheating and treason, to the Tower she marches
While Henry he turns coat and the masses applaud it...
-He know that Ego- can take no more
-So he go and turn on - his queen 'come whore
-He know that Ego - it must move on
-And so on, he boast "her head will roll"
Her head will roll.
And Annie she rolls on, just not how she wanted
That Annie she rolls on, just not how she wanted
That Annie she rolls on, just not how she wanted
That Annie she rolls on, just not how she wanted
