The Lyrics
its about time i wrote a parody to this song... proving that all my history courses are useful for something
David, like Moses was wise as a leader
George fought the U.S. but he was defeated
In a sarcophagus, Tut from B.C.
These are a few described famous dead kings
The law was laid down by King Hammurabi
King Henry's temper was hot like wasabi
Emperors in China were Songs, Hans, and Mings
These are a few described famous dead kings
Charles was beheaded and replaced by Cromwell
York and Lancaster did not get along well
Alfonso the tenth knew a lot of things
These are a few described famous dead kings
I don't own much
I can't lead things
I am not the state
But I know where my head is unlike these dead kings
And that makes me feel so great
George fought the U.S. but he was defeated
In a sarcophagus, Tut from B.C.
These are a few described famous dead kings
The law was laid down by King Hammurabi
King Henry's temper was hot like wasabi
Emperors in China were Songs, Hans, and Mings
These are a few described famous dead kings
Charles was beheaded and replaced by Cromwell
York and Lancaster did not get along well
Alfonso the tenth knew a lot of things
These are a few described famous dead kings
I don't own much
I can't lead things
I am not the state
But I know where my head is unlike these dead kings
And that makes me feel so great

Great work!
ANother great one Ethan
This was excellent - wish it could have been longer. Extra points for putting El Sabio in there!
Great Parody Ethan! 4-5-5
Nice one
Historical and hysterical. Good rhyme of Hammurabi and wasabi.
