This Is My Kingdom Now Lyrics - Justin Currie

Guess I got lucky 

That God didn't take me away 

Administered to by flunkies 

And baptised every day 

But I think I've got it figured 

I've fallen into hell somehow 

So tell those vacant visitors 

That this is my kingdom now 

They line the hallways 

A column made of bones 

I pull their strings sideways 

And wheel them about in their thrones 

And I know this can't be paradise 

That much the angels will allow 

So tell those shuffing shadows 

That this is my kingdom now 

I was sure that I could hear applause 

And that I should take a bow 

But no-one seems to care in here 

That this is my kingdom now 

Guess I got lucky 

That God didn't take me away 

I motion like a monkey 

And hope somebody sees me today 

And the peasants from the village 

They have brought their horse and plough 

So I turn my face to the radio 

And say 'this is my kingdom now'
