I'm through with doing time for peerages I'll never get in
It's like a kingdom Crown Tourney that I'm never gonna win
This life hasn't turned out quite the way I want it to be

(Tell me watchya want)

I want a brand new pavilion and a new household
And twenty-one squires that do as they’re told
And a king size bed big enough for ten plus me

(Tell me watchya need)

I'll need a
Bank account that's got no limit
And a big trailer with a bedroom in it
Gonna tour every War in the US and then Europe

(Been there, done that)

I want an arming tent full of swords and shields

People to quake when I take the field
Being good as Gunther or Lucan is fine for me

(So how you gonna do it)

I'm gonna trade this life for dukedom and fame
I'd even cut my hair and change my name

'Cause we all just wanna be big time dukes
And live in big pavilions put up by ten mooks
The girls come easy and the booze comes cheap
We'll all stay skinny ‘cause we’ll puke in the heat
And we'll
Hang out in the coolest camps
In the best kingdoms with the hottest tramps
Every wanna-be queen’s gonna wind up there
Every half-dressed dancer with her bleach blond hair and well,
Hey hey I wanna be the next duke
Hey hey I wanna be the next duke

I wanna be great like Andreas without the tassels
Hire eight body guards that love to beat up assholes
Kiss a couple ladies hands so I can eat my meals for free

(I'll have the roasted game hen, haha)

I'm gonna dress my ass in whatever’s offered
Get my own gold crown since I’m here so often
Gonna make each new girlfriend a Queen like I think she should be

(So how you gonna do it)

I'm gonna trade this life for dukedom and fame
I'd even cut my hair and change my name

'Cause we all just wanna be big time dukes
And live in big pavilions put up by ten mooks
The girls come easy and the booze comes cheap
We'll all stay skinny ‘cause we’ll puke in the heat
And we'll
Hang out in the coolest camps
In the best kingdoms with the hottest tramps
Every wanna-be queen’s gonna wind up there
Every half-dressed dancer with her bleach blond hair

And we’ll,
Stay up and drink tonight

With the newest royal peer that I slept with last night

They'll get you anything with that evil smile
Everybody's got chivalry on speed dial, well
Hey hey I wanna be the next duke

I'm gonna sing those songs that make me look like a clod
Gonna pass new laws that get me banned by the BOD

Get washed-up fighters to herald my fights

Rhino hide in the list until I get it right

Well we all just wanna be big time dukes
And live in big pavilions put up by ten mooks
The girls come easy and the booze comes cheap
We'll all stay skinny ‘cause we’ll puke in the heat
And we'll
Hang out in the coolest camps
In the best kingdoms with the hottest tramps
Every wanna-be queen’s gonna wind up there
Every half-dressed dancer with her bleach blond hair
And we'll
Stay up and drink tonight

With the newest royal peer that I slept with last night

They'll get you anything with that evil smile
Everybody's got chivalry on speed dial, well
Hey hey I wanna be the next duke
Hey hey I wanna be the next duke
