Peanut Butter Sandwich

    (I'll tell you a story of silly young king
    Who played with the world at the end of a string
    But he only loved one single thing and that was just a peanut butter sandwich)

    Now his scepter wand his royal gowns his regal throne and golden crowns
    Were brown and sticky from the mounds
    And drippings from each peanut butter sandwich
    His subjects all were silly fools cuz he had passed a royal rule
    That all that they could learn in school was how to make a peanut butter sandwich
    He would not eat his sovereign steak he scorned his soup and his kingly cake
    And told his courtly cook to bake
    And nothin' nothin' nothin' but an extra-sticky peanut butter sandwich
    And then one day he took a bite and started chewing with delight
    But found his mouth was stuck quite tight
    From that last bite of peanut butter sandwich
    His brother pulled his sister pried the wizard pushed his mother cried
    Oh my boy's committed suicide from eating his last peanut utter sandwich
    The dentist came and the royal doc the royal plumber banged and knocked
    But still those jaws stayed tightly locked oh darn that sticky peanut utter sandwich
    The carpenter he tried with pliers the telephone man tried with wires
    The firemen they tried with fire but couldn't melt that peanut utter sandwich
    With ropes and pulleys drills and coil with steam and lubricating oil
    For twenty years of tears and toil they fought that awful peanut bbutter sandwich
    Then all his royal subjects came they hooked his jaws with grapplin' chains
    And pulled both ways with might and main
    Against against that peanut butter sandwich
    Each man and woman girl and boy put down their ploughs and pots and toys
    And pulled until kerack oh joy they broke right through the peanut utter sandwich
    A puff of dust a screech a squeak the kin's jaw opened with a creak
    And then in voice so faint and weak the first words that they heard him speak
    Were how about a peanut butter sandwich
