Lyrics of song Great King Rat from Queen. This song is on the album Queen.
Great King Rat died today
Born on the twenty first of May
Died syphillis forty four on his birthday
Every second word he swore
Yes he was the son of a whore
Always wanted by the law
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know human being?
Great King Rat was a dirty old guy
And a dirty old guy was he
Now what did I tell you
Would you like to see?
Where will I be tomorrow?
Will I beg or will I borrow?
I don't care I don't care anyway
Come on come on the time is right
I told you ah yes I told you
And that's no lie oh no no no
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know?
Great King Rat was a dirty old guy
And a dirty old guy was he
Now what did I tell you?
Would you like to see?
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know human being?
Great King Rat was a dirty old guy
And a dirty old guy was he
Now what did I tell you?
Would you like to see?
Now listen all you human being
Put out the good and keep the bad
Don't guess all you read in the Bible
You sinners get in line
Saints you leave far behind
Very soon you're gonna be his disciple
Don't listen to what mama says
Not a word not a word mama says
Or else you'll find yourself being the rival
The great Lord before He died
Knelt sinners by his side
And said you're gonna realise tomorrow
No I'm not gonna tell you
What you already know
'Cause time and time again
The old guy said it all a long time ago
Come come on the time is right
This evil guy will fight
I told you once before
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know?
Just like I said before
Great King Rat was a dirty old guy
And a dirty old guy was he
The last time I tell you?
Would you like to see
