The Phony King Of England Chords & Lyrics - Disney - Robin Hood

[G]Oh the world will sing of an English King

A thousand years from now,
And[D] not because he passed some laws
Or [G]had that lofty brow.
[G]While bonny good King Richard leads

The great crusade he's on,
We'll [D]all have to slave away
For that [G]good-for-nothin' John!
[G]Incredible as he is inept,

Whenever the history books are kept,
They'll call him the phony king of [D]Eng[G]land.
A pox on the phony king of [D]Eng[G]land!

[G]He sits alone on a giant throne,

Pretendin' he's the king,
A [D]little tyke who's rather like
A [G]puppet on a string,

And he throws an angry tantrum

if he cannot have his way...
And [D]then he calls for Mum,

while he's suckin' his thumb.
You see, he [G]doesn't want to play.

[G]Too late to be known as John the First,

He's sure to be known as John the worst,
A pox on that phony king of E[D]ngl[G]and!

Lay that country on me, babe!

[G]While he taxes us to pieces

And he robs us of our bread,
King [D]Richard's crown keeps slippin' down
Ar[G]ound that pointed head,

Ah! But while there is a merry man

in Robin's wily pack,
We'll [D]find a way to make him pay
And [G]steal our money back.

A minute before he knows we're there...
(NO CHORDS)
Ol' Rob'll snatch his underwear!

[G]The breezy and uneasy king of E[D]ngl[G]and,
The s[D]nivellin', grovellin',

Measly, weasely,

Blabberin', jabberin',

Gibberin', jabberin',

Blunderin', plunderin',

Wheelin', dealin',
Prince [G]John, that phony king of E[D]ngl[G]and,

Yeah!
