(Herod! Herod! Herod!)

[HEROD]
It’s good to be king
And have the absolute authority
All the attributes of divinity
I’m a religion
Look how they all worship me

Don’t have to be good to be a good king
Just gotta look like you’ve got sympathy
Then keep ‘em rooked and suffering
To maximize your profiting

Look how the peasants work down to the bone
As I sit up high on my velvety throne
Pulling the strings on the people below
It’s so stinking good to be king

Mine is the kingdom
Mine is the power
[HEROD and ANTIPATOR]
Mine is the glory
Forеvermore

[HEROD]
It’s good to be king
And bе the one who screams, “Off with his head!”
Or be the one who’s deemed savior instead
It’s delicious to watch a man begging for his death
I put in a knife and then give it a twist
A smile opens up on my sinister lips
The joy of the crown is too much to resist
It’s so stinking good to be king

(I just love it!)

[HEROD and ANTIPATOR]
Mine is the kingdom
Mine is the power
Mine is the glory

Forevermore
Forevermore
Forevermore!

[HEROD]
So stinking good to be king!
