Lyrics

[Verse 1] The king sits all alone With his head down on the throne And he's cryin' The court had stood him up Until they've had, had enough And he's cryin' [Pre-Chorus] His simple trick of rhetoric Like blood from a finger with a little prick The hanging scroll sits on a stick And he's cryin' [Chorus] So call up your money maker (Call up your money maker) And maybe he'll find a taker (Maybe he'll find a taker) It'll take a lot to break him Just give him time to break [Verse 2] The words can fuel the fire And pretty soon they'll turn to ash From his cryin' You're only foolin' yourself If you think it's gonna last From he's cryin' [Refrain] And thеre will come a day when thеy They all pass away then Who is gonna star In your one act play? [Chorus] So call up your money maker (Call up your money maker) And maybe he'll find a taker (Maybe he'll find a taker) It'll take a lot to break him Just give him time to break [Bridge] Oh, yeah Ooh, they'll break All in all this puppet's on a string (Ooh, a string) Everything you read is gonna sting (Sting) No matter what, the king is gonna sing (Sing), sing away Woah [Outro] It'll take a lot to break him Yeah, just leave him alone (It'll take a lot to break him) It'll take a lot to break him (It'll take a lot to break him) It'll take a lot to break him (It'll take a lot to break him) Just leave him alone, ooh, give him time Just leave him alone
