'Til he knows everything.

HUH? That isn't it at all, it doesn't even make sense.

The lyric is about boundless appetites for more, and the elusive sense of 'enough:'

Poor men want to be rich,
Rich men want to be king.
And a king ain't satisfied,
'Til he rules everything.

Reminds me of the line from the Jimi Hendrix classic, "Purple Haze." "`Scuse me, while I kiss this guy!"

Or the ever popular song, "Bald Headed Woman," by the Bee Gees!
