The “Fuh King” song…How did I miss this gem???

Just finished listening to Apple Records’ recently released “Come and Get it” album, a collection of rare tracks. This song just made my ears perk up. Only 2,000 copies were pressed in 1969. John Lennon and George Harrison were big fans supposedly.

BRUTE FORCE KING OF FUH LYRICS
You look up high
And you see the sky so big and blue
And you wonder why people don’t worship beauty
You look down on the ground
You see the flowers there red and blue and brown
And you wonder why people don’t worship beauty

There was a beautiful land
There was a beautiful land
There was a beautiful land called Fuh
And in this land there was a king
And everybody called him the Fuh King
And the Fuh King did what he wanted to do
I said the Fuh King went where he wanted to go
Wo oh mighty, mighty Fuh King

All hail the Fuh King
The mighty Fuh King
All hail! All hail the Fuh King

You walk out on the street
You see the people and hear the pit-pat of their happy, um, feet
And you wonder why people don’t worship beauty
See the animals and plants
See the many women do their sacred dance
On a key ring around beauty

All hail beauty
Mighty beauty
All hail! All hail beauty

There was a land called Fuh
And in this land there was a king
And everybody called him the Fuh King
And the Fuh King thought what he wanted to think
I said the Fuh King said what he wanted to say
Wo oh mighty, mighty Fuh King

All hail the Fuh King
The mighty Fuh King
All hail! All hail! All hail
The mighty Fuh King
