The King of the Pond (Purple or CPI;D) (Stephanie) lyrics & image by Stephanie & ChatGPT music by Suno AI The King of the Pond (Purple or CPI;D) (Stephanie) There’s a manager of a soup company Speaking softly on public TV He said, “Ali, I see your farm, Your patched-up coat, your lucky charm” He spoke of fields and borrowed land And the King of the Pond with a crooked crown Every word was canned and sealed Like prophecy wrapped in steel The cameras blinked, the room went still A spoon froze halfway to the grill No one knew just what it meant But everyone felt what was sent Hold the soup up to the holiday light Something feels wrong, but it might be right Ali laughs, says, “Watch and see— This gift’ll dress the King of the Pond for me” Purple dreams or CPI;D Costume stitched from truth and pride Sing it loud, don’t let it fade The prophecy’s already been made The farm managers clutched that can Like a ritual no one planned Snow fell slow on honest hands While questions spread across the land Down at the dock, by the briny rail An eel stayed pure, no switch, no fail The farmer swore by moon and tide “I kept the liquids justified” Meanwhile, somewhere marble-floored, The lion’s lawyer pled and roared Justice paced in polished shoes While truth put on its workday blues Hold the soup up to the holiday light Something feels wrong, but it might be right Ali laughs, says, “Watch and see— This gift’ll dress the King of the Pond for me” Purple dreams or CPI;D Costume stitched from truth and pride Sing it loud, don’t let it fade The prophecy’s already been made Public television rolled the tape Every word escaped its shape A comment small, but heavy sound Rippled like a stone unbound Clothes, a farm, a passing glance Turned into a televised dance Who knew a can, a coat, a crown Could turn the whole wide story ‘round? Hold the soup up to the holiday light Strange as it is, it’s part of the rite Ali smiles by the old oak tree “Let the King be funny, let the King be free” Purple reign or CPI;D Pond-born myths don’t have to hide Sing it loud, let history respond Long live the funny King of the Pond So remember this when the screens all glow And prophets speak in overflow The smallest comment, lightly tossed, Can matter more than what was lost.
