King of Awkward Conversations

I am the king of awkward conversations
Destroyer of social situations
You came here for a chat
But I stopped you in your tracks
'Cause I'm the king of awkward conversations

I reign supreme with silences that stretch on for days
Pregnant pauses heralded as uneasy and strained
You're feeling weird and tense
While I'm only having fun
Bow down to the king of awkward conversations

Bow down
I'll bring your shindig to a standstill
Bow Down
I'll turn your party to a landfill
Bow down and comply
I am the place where friendly banter goes to die

I am the king of awkward conversations
Crown prince of dead end declarations
The small talk flowed like wine
'Til I slowed it to a grind
And left the room in a state of sad stagnation

'Cause I'm the king of awkward conversations
Royal highness of ill communication
You had the gift of gab
'Til I put it on the run
Bow down to the king of awkward conversations

Bow down
I'll bring your shindig to a standstill
Bow Down
I'll turn your party to a landfill
Bow down and comply
I am the place where friendly banter goes to die

And my subjects are subjected to my dull subjects
The effect is like a verbal hex
They stand in silence and they crane their necks
For someone more engaging
Well if that's your wish then
I say off with your head I won't take it
Off with their heads!

But with you the words just flow so easily
Nouns and verbs and scintillating adjectives

You've dethroned the king
