lyrics

I was born Prince Henry, Duke of Earl
Third of the name, though second to none
As heir to the glory of this world
I was bred for fame, so will be my son
Then when I look down from my comfy throne
I can see, oh my, an odd tableau
Small human dots with lives of their own
From here up high, I shout “Hello”

Hello down below
Hello down below, you common Joes
Hello down below
You're so low, I've got vertigo

My princely schedule, in a nutshell
Is that of a gallant in glamorous halls
From May to April, I'm busy as hell
Between some great hunts and sumptuous balls
At times, I dare take a glance down at you
And your shabby life without no glow
That's a tough break, still that's the truth
I'm flying high, you're crawling low

Hello down below
Hello down below, you common Joes
Hello down below
You're so low, I've got vertigo
Hello down below
Hello down below, you average Joes
Hello down below
You're so damn low, I've got vertigo

What goes up
Must come down
To the ground
I've heard it all before
What goes up
Must come down
To the solid ground

So when you'll get sick of me bragging around
You'll have me consigned to the gallows
To lynch me quick, and with a cracking sound
You'll hang me high, I'll sway down low

Hello down below
Hello down below, you common Joes
Hello down below
You're so low, I've got vertigo
Hello down below
Hello down below, you average Joes
Hello down below
You're so damn low, I've got vertigo
