Lyrics
1, 2, 3, 4
A full belly boasts the little hun
His dead cat's a windchime
Its bones hang in the burnt sun
A headless Barbie, she's nailed to a tree
A brutal symbol of the two year old's dynasty
His reign is built on terror
His mother, she swings the axe
Our juice is sucked through the nipple
Of the backyard king, yeah
Tonka toys that carry nicotine
14 issues of Penthouse and some other things found obscene
His swing set is a playschool gallo
His doorstep's, his throne, his crown's made out of Lego
His reign is built on terror
His mother, she swings the axe
Our juice is sucked through the nipple
Of the backyard king, yeah
He's a real little guy
(About thirty six inches)
But he carries a big stick
His reign is built on terror
His mother, she swings the axe
Our juice is sucked through the nipple
Of the backyard king, yeah
The backyard king, yeah
The backyard king, yeah
Spare me Buster
