歌曲名 The King Is in the Counting House

歌手名 The Electric Prunes

The King is in the counting house

Counting out his money

The Queen is in her parlour

Eating bread and honey

And in her royal heart of hearts

She's happy as can be

Isn't she

Isn't she

The King is always working

Now signing proclamations

The children see their father's brow

Knitted by frustrations

But in his royal heart of hearts

He serves his family

Doesn't he

Doesn't he

The golden calendar reflects a day

Of obligations

The King and Queen will offer

Love to cold and distant nations

The children's day goes

By so fast nobody's thought to miss them

The golden clock is striking twelve

Now it's too late to to kiss them

Though the castle's marble walls

Don't echo any laughter

But the family portrait

Paints them happy ever after

And in their royal heart of hearts

They're happy as certainly

Aren't we

Aren't we
