J. Robbins on this song: “That’s one Kim and Bill and I wrote the lyrics around a table, and it was about somebody that we knew who likes to hold court. You’d go over to their house so they could hold court.”

Empire of One Lyrics

Empire of one (Empire of one)
Misfortunate son (A kiss to the don)
Auto-hypnotic lecture short-circuit (Holding court in a rented room)
Condition chronic (Suspicions static)
Mouth like a senator (Hung like a cheap suit)
Sings like a salesman (Drunk on the audience)
Empire of one (Empire of one)
Respect to the don (Misfortunate son)
Holding court (Sucks up to emcee)
In a rented room (The one-ring circus)
Puts a theory (Condition chronic)
To the test on you (Mouth like a senator)
One lucky audience (Sold on the salesmen)
Lackluster hero
Go back to zero
Empire of one (Empire of one)
The subjects are gone (Misfortunate son)
Meager returns (Seated and burns)
On a king's star-time charm (On a brown tar time-bomb)
Doffs the crown (Bitter tonic)
To stagger home (Tight like a tourniquet)
Drunk on the obvious (Sings like a salesman)
Empire of one (Empire of one)
Misfortunate son (The suspects are gone)
Auto-hypnotic lecture short-circuit (Auto-hypnotic lecture short-circuit)
Condition chronic (Dons the crown to swagger alone)
Tight like a tourniquet (Drunk on the obvious)
Sings like a salesman
Lackluster hero
Go back to zero
Trying to talk to (Past mouth and through you)
Past mouth and through you (talk through to you)
Lackluster hero
Go back to zero
