Make me a rendevous, and keep me alive,
Point me away from you, and hope I arrive,
Put up a monument, remember my name,
Will you shine up my memory, when it's all that remains?

Build me a castle and throw a parade,
Put my name in stone so the words won't fade,
Start a religion and name it for me,
Build me a city and give me the key,

I'm King for a Day,
I can do no wrong,
I'm King for a Day,
'Til the next one comes along,

Heroes are wonderful... I'm forced to admit,
But out here past the Sun, That doesn't help me a bit,
When you wake up tomorrow, I'll be light years away,
But you'll find some other hero to be King for a day.

Build me a castle and throw a parade,
Put my name in stone so the words won't fade,
Start a Religion and name it for me,
Build me a city and give me the key,

I'm King for a Day,
I can do no wrong,
I'm King for a Day,
'Til the next one comes along,
King for a Day!

You are a King for a Day,
You are the King for a Day,

King for a Day...
King for a Day...
King For a Day...
King for a Day...

Build me a castle and throw a parade,
Put my name in stone so the words won't fade,
Start a Religion and name it for me,
Build me a city and give me the key,

I'm King for a Day,
I can do no wrong,
I'm King for a Day,
'Til the next one comes along,
King for a Day!

King for a Day!
King for a Day!
King for a Day!
