Текст песни

They led him to the scaffold the people were shouting in the square
Everyone gathered even though it was early
And he walked overcoming the pain already a helpless king
And everyone was shouting death to the tyrant

But once he was almighty to everyone
He was cruel and merciless once upon a time
But he did not know or maybe he forgot
That if you do much evil in life
Then expect retribution

He was cunning and sly and he was quick to execute
He ruthlessly punished his servants
He was a king but he stole and did not even hide it
He thought he could get away with it

He was confident the people would endure everything
And that he could commit endless lawlessness
But everything turned out to be the opposite
Nothing lasts forever under the moon
Nothing lasts forever

He was a scoundrel and a liar and thought only of one thing
He thought only of power

In chests full of gold and pearls soaked in blood
He found his happiness

And when the people took the crown from him
He could hardly even see in a terrible dream
That those who once guarded him threw stones at him
And spat in his face

The king was paralyzed with fear he dared not resist
He collapsed completely powerless onto the scaffold

A moment passed and then his head
Was placed on the stake

Villains of all kinds and scoundrels
And history teaches us not for nothing
That sooner or later in the end
Human judgment and gods wrath will catch up with everyone

Gods wrath
