The Thinman had a LOT of books in his apartment - he seemed to read a lot of what he called "old history from Europe" - he said he got this song from those books................................

The Holy Roman Empire
Are coming for us
The burning church and crooked spires
Want to be our saviours
Their foraging armies
Take all our provisions
Don’t wait for me
Where is The King Of Sweden ?
Where is The King Of Sweden ?

Why can’t life be like it was
We don’t need a new God
We didn’t need salvation
We don’t need to be a nation

They come up The Spanish Road
You hear them marching so slow
They’re followed by the murder crows
Death is coming and we all know
Nothing on earth can stop them
This was our garden of Eden
There is so many of them
Where is The King Of Sweden ?
Where is The King Of Sweden ?

Why can’t life be like it was
We don’t need a new God
We didn’t need salvation
We don’t need to be a nation

Well the Scottish Mercenaries
Won’t show no mercy
And nobody ever told me
I would die this early
The dawn chorus of babies
Squealin for their feedin
And I ain’t heard laughter lately
I ain’t heard laughter lately
O Where is The King Of Sweden ?

Why can’t life be like it was
We don’t need a new God
We didn’t need salvation
We don’t need to be a nation

I was born to die in Magdeburg
For Martin Luther and Calvin
But the sweetest sound I ever heard
Was your sweet voice a singin’
It’s a memory I cling to
As we all lie bleedin
It’s the only God I sing to
Where is The King Of Sweden ?
Where is The King Of Sweden ?

Why can’t life be like it was
We don’t need a new God
We didn’t need salvation
We don’t need to be a nation



They throw babies onto bonfires
Rape women in their husbands arms
This holy evil empire
Thinks it won’t do us any harm
Well the King of Sweden will wait for them
Wait for them in the depths of hell
Just like we were waiting for him
The demon ranks will swell
There is The King Of Sweden
There is The King Of Sweden
