Lyrics

The Most Exalted Potentate of Love

[Chorus]

Yeah, here comes the one that you've been dreaming of

I am the most exalted potentate of love

I got a mojo hand that fits like a glove

I'll be coming round the mountain to get your love

I'm the most exalted potentate of love

Yes I am

[Verse 1]

Yes, I'm the celebrated Hottentot of twat

Make a hole, look out, make way for a demon child

[Pre-Chorus]

I'll make you hear my turtle dove

Ride around the range to get your love

Oh, we're having fun, how 'bout you son of a gun?

[Bridge]

Mad, you called me mad?

I have the secret to eternal love

Mad, you call me mad?

[Chorus]

I am the most exalted potentate of love

I am the most exalted potentate

The most exalted potentate

The most exalted potentate of love

[Verse 2]

Yes, I'll teach you how to read the book of life

You can just look at the pictures if you like

[Pre-Chorus]

I'll make you hear my turtle dove

Ride around the range to get your love

Oh, we're having fun, how 'bout you son of a gun?

[Chorus]

I am the most exalted potentate

The most exalted potentate

The most exalted potentate of love
