They shot him down
|
They shot him down
|
They thought he was a monster
|
But he was the king
|
They came to his island
|
And they brought her with them
|
They wanted to get his picture
|
But they were surprised
|
By his enormous size
|
And when he saw the woman
|
He took her without question
|
Because after all
|
He was the king
|
And he loved the woman
|
He loved the way she looked
|
And she wouldn’t stop screaming
|
But he loved the woman
|
And he fought a Tyrannosaurus Rex
|
And it was a bloody battle
|
But he fought it for his woman
|
And he climbed up a mountain
|
And he looked around
|
Some kind of forest
|
With all these dinosaurs
|
And he stripped his woman
|
He stripped her bare
|
But there was a pterodactyl
|
There
|
And then a hero
|
Came and took his woman
|
And they fell off the mountain
|
Into some water
|
And then later
|
He came looking for his woman
|
But they were waiting
|
And they threw a bomb
|
And they tied him
|
And took him across the ocean
|
And they chained him
|
And put him in the show
|
And when he saw his woman
|
He broke loose
|
And everyone fled in terror
|
And he was looking for her
|
And he overtook a train
|
And he was looking in the street
|
And then he found her in her apartment
|
And he climbed up
|
The Empire State Building
|
It was like a phallic symbol
|
And he took his woman
|
To the top of that towering temple
|
And he climbed up and looked around
|
Some kind of city
|
With all those skyscrapers
|
And all the cars
|
Just him and his screaming woman
|
And they were finally alone
|
He loved his woman
|
You could see it in his eyes
|
His great big eyes
|
He loved his woman
|
From the moment that he saw her
|
He was all choked up inside
|
But when the airplanes came
|
He was soon to die
|
But he hung on long enough to set his woman down
|
And make sure that she was safe
|
And as the bullets pierced
|
He looked at her so sincere
|
Before he fell
|
Because he loved his woman
|
And they shot him down
|
They thought he was a monster
|
But he was the king
|
Who killed the monkey
|
'twas beauty that killed the beast
|
And Willis O’Brien died
|
A tragic death
|
There wasn’t much
|
That he had left
|
And Ray Harryhousen said
|
That when Willis died
|
That’s when the king was really dead
|
They shot him down
|
They shot him down
|
They thought he was a monster
|
But he was the king |
