last night I saw the owner kiss it and whisper in its ear

I was walking home from walgreen's and he did not hear me see him

welcome back the baby king, the baby king. All the believers they were smiling

    FF                   C7C7
and winking at each other. I could honestly say I was scared for my life

they've been showing it on the news it was thirty times its size

    C7C7
with a megaphone and a heart-shaped bruise it was hovering in the skies
