If You Became King of The World

Yours was such a pampered, vapid, parochial, 'first world' suggestion [while referring to "the world"], it was crying out to be kicked into touch. Don't take it personally. Just try to enter into the spirit of things. 🙂

Thanks for the chat, F M.

Gotta run.

Breakfast's being served.

No worries, F M. You can reign as king in your world and I'll wear a tipsy crown in mine. Then, All Members of (and subscribers to) the Human Race may decide where to reside. Annualy, Ponderable could take a census of both population and relocations between these two and other worlds in which other RHP Members were King or Queen. GB's World would warmly welcome all Patzers, Seekers, Lovers, Poets and Clowns.

I'm King of the world, that's right. Yes I am.
I can have champagne with my bread and jam.
What's that you say? An opposition?
Throw them in jail we are in transition.

I will not stand for your point of view,
my way or the highway or I'll run you through.
I'll make my own laws and amendments here.
With a stroke of my pen I'll end your career.

A despot? A tyrant? A ruthless bloodthirsty man?
Better get out of town while you still can.
This is a closed society now, by order of the crown.
By midnight I'm gonna lock this place down.

Those who stay had better learn how to serve,
or else they'll get what I think they deserve.
None shall speak out, none shall rebel.
Some may meet in secret, you never can tell.

But My State Police will find them all.
The Captain in charge I'll just give him a call.
Better watch out now a new flag has unfurled.
None shall defy me when I'm King of the world.

Just try to enter into the spirit of things, Grampy Bobby, rather than get kind of flustered when people don't do your bidding or flatter you! Just relax a little. 😀

If you were to become King of the world,

how soon do you think you would go from hero to zero?

How long would it take before the great humanitarian became a despot?

They say power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

I don't think it would take long before your own agenda would come first
before the needs of the many. An isolationist bubble would form around you and
only those of your inner circle would be allowed in.

Those you don't need...............................????????????

Unable to respond, Woody, since I'm unsure whether your sentiments are general or menber-specific.

Anyway, breakfast was wonderful (and I did give thanks twice, fore and aft).

"If I were King of the World, Not queen, not duke, not prince.
My regal robes of the world, 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 - woof.
As I'd click my heel, all the trees would kneel.
And the mountains bow and the bulls kowtow.
And the sparrow would take wing - If I - If I - were King!
Each rabbit would show respect to me. The chipmunks genuflect to me.
Though my tail would lash, I would show compash
For every underling!
If I - If I - were King!
Just King!
Monarch of all I survey -- Mo--na-a-a--a-arch Of all I survey!"

As King, I would eliminate such things as 2nd and 3rd world opinions and require everyone to agree with my opinions or get out of my kingdom. 😏

HalleluYah !!! Praise the Lord! Holy! Holy! Holy!

I don't think you should be insulting those whom you want to feed you.

Since the very first time I saw the Wizard of Oz, my fav character was always the Cowardly Lion.

I would get out more if I were you; watch some TV or something at least.

Watching TV is what the overlords want you to do. Too passive for my tastes.

With all the hunger in the world, the issues of food security, farmers' access to water, sky high food prices, polluted land, toxins & pharmaceuticals in the food chain, children with malnutrition etc. I think my very first order of business on the 'food' front would be something to do with the world's actual serious problems rather than attempting to make some ...[text shortened]... f-regarding affected fuddy-duddy navel-gazing gesture about the labelling on processed food.

You are *such* a cheerful guy.
