Head of the Table
Here at the top of the hill
I drink all my wine and I swill
Here from my own Vantage Point
Watching the flies in the ointment
Crimes against humanity
Simply mean nothing to me
Insular in the extreme
I'm like the cat who got the cream
I am the one who presides over all
I am the one who can make you feel so small
I am the head of the table
I am both willing and able
I am a modern day fable
My power base, my power base is stable
Here at the top of the tree
I am just where I want to be
I need physical proximity
To control all those I oversee
All of the eyes fix on me
I am both judge and jury
Holding court over my sheep
I'll do the sewing and reaping
I am the one
Who controls all he sees
I am the one
Who shows no mercy to their pleas.
I drink all my wine and I swill
Here from my own Vantage Point
Watching the flies in the ointment
Crimes against humanity
Simply mean nothing to me
Insular in the extreme
I'm like the cat who got the cream
I am the one who presides over all
I am the one who can make you feel so small
I am the head of the table
I am both willing and able
I am a modern day fable
My power base, my power base is stable
Here at the top of the tree
I am just where I want to be
I need physical proximity
To control all those I oversee
All of the eyes fix on me
I am both judge and jury
Holding court over my sheep
I'll do the sewing and reaping
I am the one
Who controls all he sees
I am the one
Who shows no mercy to their pleas.
