I am the lion who sits on the throne
I am the lion who can have or lose it all and end up without even a bone
That is why I have the monkeys
Who must do all the dirty works that will give me riches’ key
I am the lion who sits on the throne
I walk with the power you gave not alone
That is why I can cover my monkeys
Once they can bring me all the riches’ key
I will cover them as long as I sit on this throne
All they have to do is their names in the mud don
As they search fruitfully for the riches’ key
My monkeys
I may share my kingdom of the rich with them when I sit on that throne
They may even have to be only in name stone’
But all they have to do is to compile those golden locked keys
And I will make humans see them as their peers and not as monkeys.
What can you do or say since you pushed me to your throne?
Do you want to throw the stone?
Go ahead, I am watching with keen interest to make a donkey
Out of you who has declined to be my monkey.
