The Lord of Lords
The rules of attraction written on stones
Are as hard and old as Moses' bones
Men are attracted, women intrigued
Not for affection but just for the seed
Ceramic vessels of feminine flaws
Men's escape the 'stone her' clause
The greatest kings are failed men
Unless a man has no honor within
Hungry for power man has raped and burned
In thousands of years is nothing learned
With women working society moans
For distorted equality men now groan
The simple answer create more war
Isn't that what men are really for?
