This song is a parody of "Prince John the Phony King of England" by Phil Harris in the animated Disney Movie Robin Hood. It tells the story of how the pirates celebrate and taunt Prince Lance, the hated nephew of King Hector McSkull. WHile Hector is away in the GReat Brethren Court Meeting in France, Lance taxes them silly. But they relatiate
Oh the world will sing of a Spoiled King
A thousand years from now
And not because he passed some laws
Or had that lofty brow
While bonny good King Hector leads
The great meeting in France
We'll all have to slave away
For that good-for-nothin' Lance
Incredible as he is inept
Whenever the history books are kept
They'll call him the phony king of VFK
A pox on the phony king of VFK!
He sits alone on a giant throne
Pretendin' he's the king
A little tyke who's rather like
A puppet on a string
And he throws an angry tantrum
if he cannot have his way
And then he calls for Mum while he's suckin' his thumb
You see, he doesn't want to play
Too late to be known as Lance the First
He's sure to be known as Lance the worst
A pox on that phony king of VFK!
While he taxes us to pieces
And he robs us of our bread
King Hector's crown keeps slippin' down
Around that pointed head
Ah! But while there is a merry man
in Jack's wily pack
We'll find a way to make him pay
And steal our money back
The minute before he knows we're there
Ol' Jack'll snatch his underwear
The breezy and uneasy king of VFK
The snivellin' grovellin'
Measly weasely
Blabberin' jabberin'
Gibberin' jabberin'
Blunderin' plunderin'
Wheelin' dealin'
Prince Lance, that phony king of VFK
Yeah!
