King Dopamine

King Dopamine set on the scene Of a throne room inside of a mind Throwing a gala for those that he rules For good subjects are so hard to find King Dopamine stands up from his seat And proceeds to set his Kingdom free Gives away his throne, crown, and cavalry For a generous king is he And he longs for adventure And craves discovery All the things he knows A kingly life can't be King Dopamine, king now of nothing Sets sail through neurons and synapses Bringing a burst to each place he sees Before the body collapses King Dopamine, motivating Finds his purpose in moving the world Once sat on a throne and observed from a skull Now drives all toward their goal His need for adventure was met Satiated by utility Found his role to fill Neurotransmitting King Dopamine on his molecular steed Returns to his kingdom of dreams Humbly bends the knee to the new monarchy Knowing full well his life is complete There's a skeleton in each of us Decorated blood and guts That's moved each day by former royalty There's a skeleton in each of us Decorated blood and guts Every day it's bursting at the seams There's a skeleton in each of us Decorated blood and guts Plays its part in body's rhapsody
