King of the World
A shabby crown, a grand delusion and a man determined to remain royalty.
Lyrics
Verse 1
Walking around in this city
Trying to find nothing to do
I drown out the sound of the crowd
They all want to take a piece out of you
I've got so many problems to solve
Sometimes it can test my resolve
Crawl out from your rocks and evolve
Verse 2
Standing up high on the ledge
Just hanging on, looking down on you
And I think to myself, yes it's true
You're no better than apes in a zoo
There are so many wrongs left to right
Will you ever step into the light
Your future's not looking too bright
Chorus
Who would be the king of the world
Who would be the king of the world
There are so many wrongs left to right
Will you ever step into the light
Your future's not looking too bright
Who would be the king of the world
Who would be the king of the world
Instrumental
Verse 3
We've come to the end of the race
You had it all Now look what you've done
All of the fighting
And all the indicting
You could never get along
Now everything's over and done
What good did it do anyone
When everyone lost, then who won?
Chorus
Who would be the king of the world
Who would be the king of the world
Now everything's over and done
What good did it do anyone
When everyone lost, then who won?
Who would be the king of the world
Who would be the king of the world
Who would be the king of the world
Who would be the king of the world
