Written for an open mic in Kendal in a workshop wiith Ann Wilson. It's a little rough.
On his throne the giggly king
All blonde ringlets and cheeky smiles
The window ledge his stage,
Playing peekaboo with curtains
Taunting us with danger.

Seducer of old ladies
Saucer eyes and tiny tic tac teeth
Making drool look attractive
Our tiny monarch
Fraying and frazzling our shattered and tired nerves
Like a seductive despot
And yet still we cherish him

And yet still we cherish him
Like a seductive despot
Fraying and frazzling our shattered and tired nerves
Our tiny monarch
Making drool look attractive
Saucer eyes and tiny tic tac teeth
Seducer of old ladies.

Taunting us with danger
Playing peekaboo with curtains
The window ledge his stage
All blonde ringlets and cheeky smiles
On his throne the giggly king.
