From the recording The Brightside Of It All
Lyrics
King of Denmark (Laraigné)
She was a dark soul queen
reigning over good old Montreal.
He was a punk rock knight
raging over the north of town.
Surrounded by wolves,
she’d have no choice, she was cruel.
Compassionate and kind,
he got defeated, turned to a fool.
Behind her strength and iron grip,
she was looking for sympathy.
At the junction of the street,
he wore an armor made of empathy.
Cemented in his love,
in this prison of devotion,
in a vehement denial,
he was defying Maxwell’s equation.
She said there’s no need to persist,
I’m not Bonnie and you’re not Clyde.
He said I agree with you,
so why should we hide.
Hey my queen,
let’s see how long I can endure this.
I’ll do my best, I’ll hurt myself, I’ll be your king of Denmark.
Dark was the night, cold was the ground.
He said, I need your resistance,
you need my persistence.
Dark was the night, cold was the ground.
She said, you need my diligence,
I need your disobedience.
Hey my queen,
let’s see how long I can endure this,
I’ll do my best, I’ll hurt myself, I’ll be your king of Denmark.
Hey my queen,
let’s see how long I can endure this.
Cause I’ll do my best, I’ll hurt myself, I’ll be your king of Denmark.
