Jacob Yancho - Emperor's New Clothes

Here ye, here ye!
All those with coats, boots, gowns, gloves, shirts, skirts, shorts and pants
Bow before your royal majesty, the Emperor!

Everybody's gathered 'round
All the jokers and the clowns
To see the mighty, mighty crown
The emperor's in town
And there he goes
Naked from his head to his toes
All hail the Emperor's new clothes

All the troops hold up their chins
As the show will soon begin
They scurry by and shuffle in
Each one wearing crazy grins
As he strikes a pose
And they all fall in line like dominoes
Before the Emperor's new clothes

The tailor slips away unseen
With his pockets fat and green
Leaves the Emperor and his Queen
Naked holding their vaccines
And he just grows
Balancing a bird on his nose
Singin' for the Emperor's new clothes

While all the people cheer and shout
Some amongst them have their doubts
Wondering what they're talkin' 'bout
Lucky if you don't find out
And everybody knows
Yes indeed, everybody knows
About the Emperor's new clothes

Deep inside the crazy crowd
Underneath a hazy cloud
A child speaks from in the shroud
A little voice is just as loud
And shows
That even the proud
Can be exposed
Just check out the Emperor's new clothes
