[Verse]
[Am]I'm the king's thirty sec[C/E]ond son
[Dm7/A]Born to him in [Bm7/A]thirty second's time[A5]
[Am]Born to him the n[Cmaj/E]ight still young
[Csus2]Born to him with two e[Em7]yebrows on
And[Dm7/A] that's all I wa[Bm7/A]s wearing[Csus2] [Em7]
Whe[Dm7/A]n I woke up star[Bm7/A]ing at th[Csus2]e world[Em7]
My mo[Am]m had been a rather crazy queen[C/E]
[Dm7/A]But not at a[Bm7/A]ll a sex[A5] machine
[Am]She liked to keep her body[Cmaj/E] clean, clean
[Csus2]Thought the world to b[Em7]e quite obscene
But sh[Dm7/A]e retired to her[Bm7/A] chamber[Csus2] [Em7]
And[Dm7/A] we remain quite[Bm7/A] stranger[Csus2]s[Em7]
[Bridge]
And to[Fsus2] see me made her aw[Am7]ful sad
And to[Fsus2] touch me made her [Am7]awful sad
And to[Fsus2] see me made her aw[Am7]ful
And to[Fsus2] touch me made her [Am7]awful
[Verse]
[Am]I'm the king's thirty second [C/E]son
[Dm7/A]And all it took was thir[Bm7/A]ty second's time[A5]
But a spo[Am]iled little prince I was no[Cmaj/E]t
Had a[Csus2] chamber maid and a ch[Em7]amber pot
And there's[Dm7/A] thirty one othe[Bm7/A]rs just l[Csus2]ike me[Em7]
There's[Dm7/A] thirty one othe[Bm7/A]rs I can [Csus2]be[Em7]
[Am]Someimtes I'd stand by the ro[C/E]yal wall
[Dm7/A]The sky'd be so big that[Bm7/A] it broke my sou[A5]l
And i sto[Am]od on my toes to catch a gl[Cmaj/E]impse
Of my[Csus2] mother's eyes and my [Em7]mother's skin
And she ret[Dm7/A]ired to her cham[Bm7/A]ber[Csus2] [Em7]
And we[Dm7/A] remain quite str[Bm7/A]angers[Csus2] [Em7]
[Bridge]
And to[Fsus2] see me made her aw[Am7]ful sad
And to[Fsus2] touch me made her [Am7]awful sad
And to[Fsus2] see me made her aw[Am7]ful
And to[Fsus2] touch me made her [Am7]awful
[Pre-cborus]
And[Esus4] one morning I woke up
And I thought O[F]edipus, Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus
Then[Esus4] one morning I woke up and I thought R[F]ex, Rex, Rex
T[Esus4]hen one morning I woke up
And I thought [F]Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus
