[ORPHEUS]
C King of diamonds,D king of spades!
CHades was kGing of the kDingdom of dirt
CMiners of mines, dDiggers of graves
CThey bowed down to GHades whoD gave them work
And they bCowed down to Hades whoD made them sweat
Who pCaid them their Gwages and sDet them about
CDigging and dGredging and dDragging the depths
Of the eCarth to turn its Ginsides Dout, singing
[Chorus]
CLa la la Dla la la Asus2la... Em
CLa la la Dla la la Ela...

[Verse]
C King of mortar,D king of bricks
CThe River Styx was a river of Dstones
CAnd Hades laid them Dhigh and thick
CWith a million hGands that were Dnot his own
CAnd a million feet that fDell in line
CAnd stepped in time with HDades' step
CAnd a million minds that were Djust one mind
CLike stones in a rDow
And sCtone by sDtone
And rCow by rDow
DThe River rose up, singing
[Chorus]
CLa la la Dla la la Asus2la... Em
CLa la la Dla la la Ela...
CLa la la Dla la la Asus2la... Em
GLa la la Dla la la.C..
