[00:01] King of diamonds, king of spades
[00:05] Hades was king of a kingdom of dirt
[00:10] Miners of mines, diggers of graves
[00:14] They bowed down to Hades who gave them work
[00:19] And they bowed down to Hades who made them sweat
[00:25] Who paid them their wages and set them about
[00:29] Digging and dredging and dragging the depths of the earth
[00:35] To turn its insides out, singing:
[00:39] La la la la la la la…
[00:57] King of mortar, kings of bricks
[01:01] The river Styx was a river of stones
[01:06] And Hades laid them high and thick
[01:11] With a million hands that were not his own
[01:16] And a million feet that fell in line
[01:21] That stepped in time with Hades' step
[01:25] And a million minds that were just one mind
[01:30] Like stones in a row,
[01:32] Stone by stone,
[01:35] Row by row,
[01:37] The river rose up, singing:
[01:40] La la la la la la la…
[00:01] King of diamonds, king of spades
[00:05] Hades was king of a kingdom of dirt
[00:10] Miners of mines, diggers of graves
[00:14] They bowed down to Hades who gave them work
[00:19] And they bowed down to Hades who made them sweat
[00:25] Who paid them their wages and set them about
[00:29] Digging and dredging and dragging the depths of the earth
[00:35] To turn its insides out, singing:
[00:39] La la la la la la la

[01:16] And a million feet that fell in line
[01:21] That stepped in time with Hades' step
[01:25] And a million minds that were just one mind
[01:30] Like stones in a row,
