I could always play that part
Ruler of the grand illusion
Breaker of the kindest hearts
Sending out to mass confusion

You reveal my tragic flaw
Power's been confiscated
How did I become a part
In this game I created?
I'll follow even though I hate it

Hey, hey
Karma King cried out fell to the ground
All of the crowd shouted: "Off with his head!"
Karma came back round calling him out
Taking his crown shouted: "Louder again!"
You're going down, down, down, down
The king was dead

Suddenly I'm overthrown
Suddenly I'm at your mercy
Lead me to the great unknown
Lead me on and desert me
Like I have done to so many

Hey, hey
Karma King cried out fell to the ground
All of the crowd shouted: "Off with his head!"
Karma came back round calling him out
Taking his crown shouted: "Louder again!"
You're going down, down, down, down
The king was dead

Losing my head
Crying instead
Losing my head

Karma King cried out fell to the ground
All of the crowd shouted: "Off with his head!"
Karma came back round calling him out
Taking his crown shouted: "Louder again!"

Karma King cried out fell to the ground
All of the crowd shouted: "Off with his head!"
Karma came back round calling him out
Taking his crown shouted: "Louder again!"
You're going down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
The king is dead
