KING OF SPAIN

I never knew I was a lover
Just cause I steal the things you hide
Just cause I focus while we're dancing
Just cause I offered you a ride

Well I am not from Barcelona
I am not even from Madrid
I am a native of the North Pole
And that can mess up any kid

Well if you can reinvent my name
Well if you can redirect my day
I wanna be the king of Spain

And I will settle in Pamplona
And I’ll provoke the bulls with words
And then I’ll send a man to meet them all
But he's fake, so I have heard

And all the senoritas sighing
Will be the fountain of my lies
But while we're floating in siesta
You search for bottles and for knives

Well if you...

And I wear my boots of Spanish leather
Oh while I’m tightening my crown
I'll disappear in some flamenco
Perhaps I’ll reach the other side

Why are you stamping my illusion?
Just cause I stole some eagle's wings
Because you named me as your lover
Like all I could be anything

Well if you...

-The Tallest Man on Earth

This song is delightful, isn't it?  The Egg is talking about being drunk.  It is sad, because he has no one to be drunk with, so he likes to talk about it, so as to give the impression of having a social life.  It must be hard to be 34 with no friends.  The Egg is my coworker.  He and The Soviet. The Soviet is very suspicious and always wearing black and whispering Russian secrets into the coffee pot.  That is fiction.  But she does pronounce it "Vock-oh-vya" instead of Wachovia.  She also loves chocolate and goes a little overboard with birthday decorating.  Office people like to joke about how much they love chocolate.  It is hilarious to them.

And if youuuuuuu
Could reinvent my name
And if youuuuuu
Could redirect my day
I wanna be the king of Spain
