Not Even the King

Lyrics

Money
 Some people so poor, all that they've got is money
 Oh, and diamonds
 Some people waste their life counting their thousands
 I don't care what they're offering
 How much gold they bring
 They can't afford what we've got
 Not even the king
 They can't afford what we've got
 Not even the king
 Oh, castles
 Some people so lonely, what good is a castle?
 Surrounded by people
 But ain't got a friend that's not on the payroll
 Oh, and I don't care what they bring
 They can have everything
 They can't afford what we've got
 Not even the king
 They can't afford what we've got
 Not even the king
 All the king's horses and all the king's men
 Came charging to get what we got
 They offered the crown and they offered the throne
 I already got all that I want
 All the king's horses and all the king's men
 They came marching through
 They offered the world just to have what we got
 But I found the world in you
 I found the world in you
 So darling, listen
 Your arms around me worth more than a kingdom
 Yeah, believe that
 The trust that we feel the kings never felt that
 Yeah, this is the song that we sing
 We don't need anything
 They can't afford this
 This is priceless
 Can't afford what we've got
 Not even the king
 Can't afford what we've got
 Not even the king
