King for a Day

I don't mean to bemoan ya
But would you be my Fiona?

I'm a little bit shy
I'm a little bit cocky though
When I'm in the limelight
I'm a little bit comfortable
What a match you and I, I'm a catch of a guy
Like a man made of gingerbread
Sadly, I wasn't gifted with high, but isn't that why
Anything will get to my head?

I'm a little bit fly
And a little bit Rock and Roll
Even if I'm uptight
'Cause when I let it hang, it ain't low
If you're lookin' for a knight in shining armor
I'm kinda hard to find, keep tryin' harder
Because if you like size
I don't have a lot of that involved

But I hope and pray my reign will come
And on that day I'll drain the swamp
Because I'm not one to fantasize
Fairy tales are fancy lies
So forget about the muffin man
I'll tell you who the fuck I am
A throne is what I'll sit upon
Even though I'll need a little help getting on

I'm feeling regal as hell (regal as hell)
'Cause I'm finally feeling myself (got me feeling myself)
Crown me now, I don't think I can wait
Raise a toast, make the most of it (even if I'm king for a day)

Even if I'm king for a day
Even if I'm king for a day
Even if I'm king for a day
Even if I'm king for a day
Mirror, mirror on the wall (even if I'm king for a day)
Who's the fairest of them all? (Even if I'm king for a day)
I don't care if she is tall (even if I'm king for a day)
Then our kids might not be small (even if I'm king for a day)

What I'm missing in size
I'll make up for with a lot
I'll pretend to be nice
Even though I'm really not
There isn't anything I
Don't believe can't just be bought
So listen, if you wanna be mine
You'd better be really hot

She's outta my league, I'm outta my depth
Already in deep, I'm in over my head
And besides, ain't life too short to wait?
I'm over having to compensate
And I know behind, every kind of tyrant
Was a loving wife who pretended he was giant
A partner in crime, more like sidekick
You know how flighty a woman might get

The wrath of which is like a dragon
A feminine side? Never have I had one
And of that fact, I'm positive enough
'Cause on horseback I struggle to get off
I'll never settle for just any broad
I gotta get the kind with royal blood
I'm the sort of lord to flip a buck into wads
I really put the "fuh" in the "kwad"

But all night do I dream that I'm king for a day
Everywhere, everyone, everything went my way
Carpe diem indeed as a thing that they say
Would you sing it with me, even if it's cliché
'Cause my time may be brief, so I'll seize what I may
Now you'd better believe, if I'm king for a day
Far as my eye can see is my kingdom, I'll say
But time is slipping away (eh, fuck it)

I'm feeling regal as hell (regal as hell)
'Cause I'm finally feeling myself (got me feeling myself)
Crown me now, I don't think I can wait
Don't deserve it, won't earn it (even if I'm king for a day)

Even if I'm king for a day
Even if I'm king for a day
Even if I'm king for a day
Even if I'm king for a day
Even if I'm king for a day (I'm not born a king for lies)
Even if I'm king for a day (fairy tales are fancy lies)
Even if I'm king for a day (I'm not born a king for lies)
Fairy tales are fancy lies
