Kings And Queens

Long ago in days I'm told
Were ruled by Lords of greed
Maidens fared with gold
They dared to bare their wombs that bleed

Kings and queens and guillotines
Taking lives denied
Starch and parchment laid the laws
When bishops took the ride
Only to deceive

Oh I know I
Lived this life afore
Somehow I know now
Truths I must be sure

Tossin turnin', nightmares burnin'
Dreams of swords in hand
Sailin' ships, the Viking spits
The blood of father's land
Only to deceive

Living times of knights and mares
Raising swords for maidens fair
Sneer at death
Fear only loss of pride

Living other centuries
Deja vu or what you please
Follows true
To all who do or die

Screams of no reply
They died
Screams of no reply
And died

Lordy lordy
And then then they died
Lordy no
Then they died

Oh

Live and do or die (long ago in days I'm told)
(Long ago in days I'm told)
Lord they died (kings and queens and guillotines)
(Kings and queens and guillotines)

Live and no reply (long ago in days I'm told)
(Long ago in days I'm told)
They died (kings and queens and guillotines)
(Kings and queens and guillotines)
