This was my favourite poem I had written. It was inspired by a rape case at URI in the early 90's where the guy got off because the girl had a promiscuous past. One day I just started jamming the main tapping riff as Andy and I ended Teetering and he just picked up these words and immediately fit them. It was a magical moment for us - instant karma
Lyrics
this is my turn to rule the world
said the king to his second queen
the rolling hills and all of the trees
encompassing is my domain
approach and kneel when seeing me
or i’ll kill you with one command
Ghengis Arthur takes his turn
rape and pillage at his discern
riches and wealth from overseas
the bounty never satisfies
more and more he wants to take
to placate what inbreeding did make
this is my turn to rule the world
so thinks the captain of industry
money booze and loose women
all his wants he’s easily pleased
through appointments only can you see
or he’ll step on you as he passes
Ghengis Arthur takes his turn
tax evasion at his discern
pay the workers slave wages
the bottom line must be improved
more and more
he will just take
‘cause uncle sam will heed his vote
(he needs his vote!)
this is my turn to rule the world
so will say the frat brother
this campus is all the world
mom an’ dad front all the bills
don’t obey the word called no
she’s only there to please him so
Ghengis Arthur takes his turn
so many girls for him to yearn
life with no responsibility
no one else ever did see
dragged to court he must go in
acquitted she’s no virgin
