I am the master,
Yes, the master,
The master of my castle,
The master of my possessions,
The master of my vessels,
Better than my predecessors.

I am grander than any before me,
Greater than the greatest king,
I know who I can be,
I have everything,
I have stacks of gold,
and orchards of pearls.

Statues of the finest molds,
and the finest girls,
Yes, I have gold, and pearls,fine molds, and girls,
But there is one thing that I have yet to receive,
The thing of my dreams,
Better than any gold and pearls.

Fine molds and a harem of girls,
It is love, yes love,
The strongest emotion,
As beautiful as a dove,
The thing that can put the world,
into slow motion.
