KING OF THE SWINDLERS (King Of The Swingers)

Written for Dick Whittington

Performed by King Rat and Fitzwarren

(KING RAT) Now I’m the king of the swindlers, bad guy VIP

World renowned for messing around

And you’re nearly as bad as me

(FITZWARREN) Well I’m the head of the council,

I’m as mean as mean can be

But compared to you, I’m nothing new

And that’s what bothering me

(BOTH) Oh, oobee do

I wanna be like you, oo oo.

I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too

You see it’s true, someone like me

Can learn to be someone like you.

(FITZWARREN) You may be small on niceness, but you are big on bad

You’re lust on greed and evil deeds

Are what I wish I had.

(KING RAT) Now don’t try and kid a kidder, I’ve made a deal with you

What I desire is a big fat liar

To help my dreams comes true

(BOTH) Oh, oobee do

I wanna be like you, oo oo.

I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too

(KING RAT) You see it’s true, someone like me

Can learn to be a politician too

(FITZWARREN) I can be a sneaky rat like you.

(BOTH) Someone like me can be someone like you.
