xtc - king for a day lyrics
|
| artist: xtc |
song: king for a day |
From the album: oranges and lemons
Everyone's creeping up to the money god, putting tongues
where they
didn't ought to be, on stepping stones of human hearts and
souls, into
the land of "nothing for free."
Well the way that we're living, is all take and no giving,
there's
nothing to believe in, the loudest mouth will hail the new
found way,
to be king for a day.
Everyone's licking up to the new king pin, trying to get
way up with
a smile. Sing for your supper boy and jump to a finger
click, ain't
my way of living in style.
'Cause the ladder gets longer, and ambition gets stronger,
I can't
satisfy the hunger, that bad old moon has got you in its
sway, to be
king for a day.
You're only here once so you got to get it right. (No
time to fuss
and fight.) 'Cause life don't mean much if measured out
with someone
else's plight. (In time you'll see the light.)
'Cause the way that we're living, is all take and no
giving, there's
not much to believe in, the loudest mouth will hail the new
found way
to be king for a day. |
