King Just for a Day Songtext
von Teen Idols

Down and out again
It′s nothing new
I guess it's always been this way, everyday
There′s nothing I can do

I can't face the world again
Go back to bed
When you start with nothing
There's nothing that you can do
I just can′t get ahead


With my back against the wall
I′m prepared to take the fall
I don't think I′ll ever hear them say
King just for a day
If only once it would be nice
After all my sacrifice
Carved in stone above my grave
King just for a day

I've worked my life away
For someone else
Nothing to show for all my work
Like a jerk
I′ve done it all myself

Don't try to lend a hand
′Cause I'm too proud
I'm a self-made man,
A man that′s turned into
A blank face in the crowd
