The Golden King

Stop
What's that on the ground
That must be the golden king
And his broken crown

Stop
What's that on the ground?
That must be the golden king
And his broken crown

Say
How'd he get that way?
Sold the crown for a royal crown
It's the price that must be paid

Now, everywhere and everyday
Upon this golden space
People choose the golden king
And any fool who'd ever thought
He was some damn special case
Soon would hear the people sing

Stop
What's that on the ground?
That must be the golden king
And his broken crown

Say
How'd he get that way?
Sold the crown for a royal crown
It's the price that must be paid

They fawn upon their golden king
With sex and drugs and everything
Then they cast the sucker
Down (down down down)
At first he's confident
His reign will last a long long time
Then he hears that old familiar sound

Stop
What's that on the ground?
That must be the golden king
And his broken crown

Say
How'd he get that way?
Sold the crown for a royal crown
It's the price that must be paid

Stop
That must be the golden king
And his broken crown

Stop
That must be the golden king
And his broken crown

Stop
Stop
Stop
