Lyrics
INT. EMPERORS’ PALACE - NIGHT
[Narrator]
How the rumours are spreading like vines
Of a man who has been glorified
News finds its way to the Empire one day
Where the envious ruler resides
[Lord Nafaryus]

He may have them inspired
Eating out of his hands
But he’ll never be ruler of this land
For myself I must see
