His Own Grand Empire

Lyrics
Verse 1
A banner stitched in candlelight
Unfurled upon a hillside throne
The treaty signed in faded ink
Declares a kingdom all my own
Pre-Chorus
No crown of gold
Just marble steps
And a name that history forgets
Chorus
Scott Walkotten rules the realm
From a garden gate to the old oak tree
Every stone a loyal subject
Every wind a decree
Long may the banner fly
Long may the realm be free
Verse 2
The neighbors wave and shake their heads
But borders drawn with garden twine
A postal stamp of my design
A parliament of sparrows fed
Pre-Chorus
No foreign king
No parliament
Just a constitution I invent
Chorus
Scott Walkotten rules the realm
From a garden gate to the old oak tree
Every stone a loyal subject
Every wind a decree
Long may the banner fly
Long may the realm be free
Bridge
Rise the flag on mornings cold
Swear the oath that I uphold
Petition, proclamation, parade
An empire built on what I made
Chorus
Scott Walkotten rules the realm
From a garden gate to the old oak tree
Every stone a loyal subject
Every wind a decree
Long may the banner fly
Long may the realm be free
