The King Speaks Lyrics

"The King is now stepping out into the balcony, to the cheers of the crowd. He is wearing the royal cape and crown, and seems to be in good health. His mustache is in excellent condition this morning, which of course is a good sign for an early spring. He is now getting ready to speak."
[The King speaks]
"My dear citizens"
[The King speaks]
"Today is a great day for me, and therefore, of course, for the whole kingdom."
[The King speaks]
"I have the great privilege to announce that the royal enema has been carried through with success, and that my Majesty is no longer constipated."
[The King speaks]
"Naturally, this is particularly good news for the peasantry in our beautiful country, and we ought to expect excellent productivity out of the fields."
[The King speaks]
"Furthermore"
[The King speaks]
"I took a bath this morning. The crowd cheers."
[The King speaks]
"The bath was warm, dignified, and reinvigorating. And I look forward to see what the Royal Brewery will be able to achieve with my Majesty's royal residue."
[The King speaks]
"Very well, that was all for today."
[The King speaks]
"Now, it's time for volleyball. Live well, my citizens. God save the King."

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

The frontman Johannes Eckerstrom said of this skit: . "We wanted to put an example there of what a fine public speaker our King is, and this was an important day. The will of the King is the will of the people and vice versa, and so it goes also with the wellbeing of the King and the people. As the king has problems with his bowel movements, we all feel it, and the whole nation was constipated [laughs]! And of course, because of the richness and usefulness of his bowel movements, we also worried about fall´s harvest and how putting the seeds in the ground would be affected when that fine manure would be around. But luckily for the people it all turned out just fine. As you can hear from the audience in the recording, it was a big deal!"
