The King of Names

There's a man goin' 'round takin' names
Well there's a man goin' 'round takin' names
He took my father's name
And he left my heart in pain
There's a man goin' 'round takin' names
An' he took that liar's name, takin' names
He took that liar's name, takin' names
He took that liar's name
His tongue got twisted and it died in shame
There's a man goin' 'round takin' names
When the child saw the man takin' names
What a funny, what a funny game, takin' names!
He took his brother's name
And he took his father's name
When the child saw the man takin' names
And there's a king on the throne takin' names
There's a king on the throne takin' names;
And there's a priest in flames
And the court's gone insane
And the king's sittin' there takin' names
I had a dream, I had a dream
I had a dream last night that worried me
It worried me
Trees were bending, people were trembling
I had a dream that worried me, that worried me, worried me
There's a man goin' 'round takin' names
There's a man goin' 'round takin' names
He took my father's name
And he left me there in pain
There's a man goin' 'round takin' names
