Lyrics - I Dubious by Skyclad

I am the king of all that
I survey -beware my son it could be yours one day.
Heir transparent to a dynasty -dog - emperor of woe and misery.
It sent me mad but now it makes me furious
I'm shadowed by a doubt -
I dubious.
Too many handshakes -not enough sincerity.
Promises of glass break -spilling poisoned treachery.
I'm a founding member of the
Pessimist
Society,
I talk to my reflection 'cause
I trust it not to lie to me.
Jesus loved
Judas -
Judas kissed
Jesus.
Caesar loved
Brutus -
Brutus killed
Caesar.
I am the king of all that
I survey -beware my son it could be yours one day.
Heir transparent to a dynasty -dog - emperor of woe and misery.
It sent me mad but now it makes me furious
I'm shadowed by a doubt -
I dubious.
Playing noughts and zeros -on my
Boolean table.
We're 'warts and all' heroesof this true - life fable.
I'm the entertainer at the
Bankrupt
Club reunion,if there's a church of failure -
I'll kneel and take communion.
Wed to
Delilah - shorn in my sleep,sentenced by
Pilate - and nailed up to weep.
I am the king of all that
I survey -beware my son it could be yours one day.
Heir transparent to a dynasty -dog - emperor of woe and misery.
It sent me mad but now it makes me furious
I'm shadowed by a doubt -
I dubious.
