the emperor's clothes

well i'm the man with the scam

and though i've never sewn a stitch

i've stumbled onto something

guaranteed to make me rich

all i gotta do is fool one imperial nitwit

you'll never not see clothes

like you won't see those

every inch of stitchin' missin'

from your hat to your hose

and if one of those hose

happens to have a hole in it

it's not as if anybody's

gonna notice when it's

the emperor's clothes

are fine

you'll never see nothing finer

nothin' like those

so right

that you'll never see the like

the like

well i just got into town

i took a quick look around

i heard you needed a suit

opportunity found

'cause i'm the man that you need

i'm gonna make you some tweeds

i'm gonna make 'em so they're

magical

beautiful

that's irrefutable now

well only philistines

could look upon these things

from the teddy bear pajamas

to the nipple rings

and not agree with me

this is a suit like no other

they're gonna gape and gawk

they're gonna stammer and stare

'cause the fabric's so fine

it's like it's not even there

you're gonna give 'em a thrill

they're never gonna get over

if i make it through this

i'm gonna be in clover

the emperor's clothes

are right!

you'll never see nothing righter

so overexposed

so right

that you'll never see the light

the light

well today's the day

i'm gonna make my play

i'm takin' my creation to the center stage

and i might lose a little

but i just might win big

you got the heads of the sla

the nra

the sendero luminoso

and the cia

at least one of every other kind of

hot shot and bigwig

they're all comin' down

they're gonna meet at the shindig

in the emperor's clothes

all right!

you'll never see nothing finer

nothin' like those

so fine

that you'll never see the like

of the emperor's clothes

all right!

that you'll never see the like

the like
