If I Were King Of The Forest not queen,not duke, not prince.
My regal robes of the forest would be satin, not cotton, not chintz.
I'd command each thing, be it fish or fowl,with a woof and a woof, and a royal
growl.
As I'd click my heel all the trees would kneel and the mountains bow and the
bulls kowtow
And the sparrows would take wing, if I were king.
