Hit the Road - King of the Creatures

King of the Creatures is a song from the game Sam & Max Hit the Road. It is sung by Conroy Bumpus halfway through the game.

Lyrics[]

Bumpus: I remember my childhood in Brighton...
When dear old Dad would bounce me on his knee.
He'd say, "Son, there ain't nothin' as excitin'
As exposing beasts to inhumanity."
That's- why- I'm-

Bumpus: Happy to be King of the Creatures!
I'm proud to be the Lord of the Odd!
I love collecting things with grotesque features!
It makes me feel like some Chaldean God.

Bumpus: Oh, I trapped my first tiger before I could speak.
Killed me a bear when I was three!
And now with this Bigfoot and giraffe-necked freak,
I finally have a full menagerie!
{spoken} Hit it, boys!

The Animals: That's- why- he's-
Happy being feared by the fauna
Jazzed just being Czar of the Bizarre
None of us can leave though we all wanna...

Bumpus: Oh, it's tough to be a country western star...

The Animals: Oh-, ye-ah-...

Trivia[]

  • In Poker Night at the Inventory 2, when Sam is thinking of what to do during a hand, he may start singing a part of the song as he thinks.
  • In Beyond the Alley of the Dolls, if Max uses Charlie Ho-Tep on the jukebox in Stinky's, he sings the opening snippet of this song.
