if asked to rule the world, i would give it mature consideration
 the last time i ruled the world it did not go well
 i never get excited when asked to rule the world
 for  i have ever been a poet and a dreamer
  my uncle, who ruled before me, was a nice person, maybe too nice
  when i was in the prime of my youth i could not decide whether to save the world or conquer it
i would be an effective ruler if i had loyal subjects
 i am starting to feel sleepy
  i have secret dreams
  my first counselor was a natural born liar
  nobody knows you when you are down and out
  never say you are sorry especially when you are guilty
  
      
  the council were afraid they couldn’t use me
  we kept it in the family
 i always wanted a garden
and a competent gardener
  i hate people who think they know everything
  you might be surprised
  you know what they say
  one day i awoke as if from a dream
  
      
 do you know what lies beyond the castle walls?
 sometimes i wonder
 i am really no better than anybody else
but is anybody else better than me?
