The King

He was a leader of a small gang Committing crimes each day But time has changed where he was proud It’s so far away He took living easy, his bad reputation Oh, it was known all around But he didn’t care, no - he made dirty money Now he is down and out Thought he knew the tricks of life Prowling in the dark Now he’s left by all his friends ‘Cause he lived apart, of them He was a leader, malicious and violent His fame is covered with blood Now he’s just a number, he lost all his power The king has lost his face Down down down, a king lost his crown Caught and sentenced, he was guilty Down down down, a king lost his crown It’s too late for to hide Late for to hide He was a leader of a small gang Committing crimes each day But time has changed where he was proud It’s so far away He took living easy - his bad reputation Oh, it was known all around But he didn’t care, no - he made dirty money Now he is down and out Down down down, a king lost his crown Caught and sentenced, he was guilty Down down down, a king lost his crown It’s too late for to hide Down down down, a king lost his crown Caught and sentenced, he was guilty Down down down, a king lost his crown It’s too late for to hide For to hide
