A King & A Kingdom

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

(vs. 1)

who's your brother, who's your sister

you just walked passed him

i think you missed her

as we're all migrating to the place where our father lives

'cause we married in to a family of immigrants

(chorus)

my first allegiance is not to a flag, a country, or a man

my first allegiance is not to democracy or blood

it's to a king & a kingdom

(vs. 2)

there are two great lies that i've heard:

"the day you eat of the fruit of that tree, you will not surely die"

and that Jesus Christ was a white, middle-class republican

and if you wanna be saved you have to learn to be like Him

(chorus)

(bridge)

but nothing unifies like a common enemy

and we've got one, sure as hell

but he may be living in your house

he may be raising up your kids

he may be sleeping with your wife

oh no, he may not look like you think
