Paroles : King of Hearts
Once upon a time, there was a man
Whose name was known throughout the land
As the "King of Hearts??a name he earned
For all the poor girls? hearts he burned
With just a smile and wicked words
He could win the love of any girl
He would be her world, ?til he was done
And he left that girl for a different one
One day, a girl of sterner stuff
Decided she had had enough
To make sure he caused no more pain
She would beat the King at his own game
She said, ?I know, I know, I know I?ve got a lot to do
But I know, I know, I know I?ll make sure everything works through.?
Let the trumpets sound. Let the kingdom know
That the King of Hearts will be dethroned
So, she met him at a party
He was going "hardy har" with his buds at the bar
Trying real hard to look sharp
He had a way with words. She admired his book smarts
He tapped her on the back, said, "I love how you look. Are
You seeing anyone?"
She said, "No."
He said, "Great. I'll pick you up tomorrow night at eight."
"It's a date."
And with a couple days and a smattering of flattering phrases
They were off to the races
He?d be bringing her flowers, and they?d be talking for hours
And all throughout the planet, there was not a single force or power
That could keep them separated, which is why the girl was hated
The other ladies were livid. They did not appreciate it
The King played right into her hand
But there was one thing she had not planned
Her worst mistake, her greatest sin:
She slowly fell in love with him
She said, ?I know, I know, I know that there are hearts at stake
But I know, I know, I know that these are feelings I can?t shake.?
Let the trumpets sound. Let the kingdom know
That the King of Hearts must be dethroned
For a while, it seemed the King would keep on
Breaking hearts just like before
?til the women of the kingdom showed up
Knocking at the girl?s front door
They said, ?Don?t quit. Your cause is true
Now get the King, before he gets you.?
So, she found a man with charm and grace
And called the King down to her place
The King could not believe his eyes
The girl was with a different guy
He felt the weight of all his deeds
And so, the King fell to his knees
He said, ?I know, I know, I know of all the wrong I?ve done
Now I?ll never, ever, ever break another heart for fun.?
Let the trumpets sound. Let the kingdom know
That the King of Hearts has been dethroned
She said, ?I know, I know, I know the battle has been won
It?s a coup d?etat they?ll sing about for centuries to come.?
Let the trumpets sound. Let the kingdom know
That the King of Hearts has been dethroned?
That the Queen of Hearts is on her throne
Once upon a time, there was a girl
Whose name was known throughout the world
As the Queen of Hearts?a name she earned
From all the poor guys? hearts she burned
Whose name was known throughout the land
As the "King of Hearts??a name he earned
For all the poor girls? hearts he burned
With just a smile and wicked words
He could win the love of any girl
He would be her world, ?til he was done
