[Verse 1]
There are despots and dictators - political manipulators
There are blue bloods with the intellects of fleas
There are kings and petty tyrants, who are so lacking in refinements
They'd be better suited swinging from the trees

[Verse 2]
He was born and raised to rule
No one has ever been this cool
In a thousand years of aristocracy
An enigma and a mystery, in Mesoamerican history
The quintessence of perfection, that is he!

[Verse 3]
He's the sovereign lord of the nation
He's the hippest dude in creation
He's a hip cat in the emperor's new clothes
Years of such selective breeding, generations have been leading
To this miracle of life that we all know

[Chorus]
What's his name?
Kuzco, Kuzco (That's his name!)
Kuzco (He's the king of the world)
Kuzco, Kuzco (Is he hip or what?!)
Kuzco-oh-oh-oh (Yeah)

[Verse 4]
He's the sovereign lord of the nation
He's the hippest cat in creation
He's the alpha, the omega, A to Z
And this perfect world will spin, around his every little whim
'Cause this perfect world begins and ends with...

[Chorus]
What's his name?
Kuzco, Kuzco, Kuzco
Kuzco (That's his name!)
Kuzco, Kuzco (Is he hip or what?!)
Kuzco (Don't you know he's the king of the world?)
Kuzco, Kuzco, Kuzco (Oh yeah)
Kuzco-oh-oh-oh (Ow!)

Tom Jones

With a career spanning over fifty years, Tom Jones is one of the mainstays of modern music. Born in 1940 in Glamorgan, South Wales, Jones rocketed to international fame after the massive success of his second single “It’s Not Unusual” in 1964. Since that time, Jones has had two series of television variety shows, recorded over forty studio albums, and been a staple act in Las Vegas. He’s famous for wearing half-open shirts and tight pants at the shows, and for receiving a hailstorm of women’s hotel room keys. Over the years, he has reinvented himself as a pop singer, a crooner, a country music singer, and a gospel-blues singer, and has had hit funk and hip-hop songs.
