Woorden: Chasing Victory. Fiends. Kings.


Well please, please, oh please
I?m beggin? on my knees
Put one in the cup
I got a fatal disease
Could you help me get back on my feet?
Why don?t you give me something you don?t need?

Oh girl, I won?t ask for your love
But if you show me some love
I?m gonna sing you a song
Going to streetlight circle my home
I?m not a king of the world
But I?m a king of the boat

And I?m falling asleep
To escape this dream

Well they call me crazy
They say I?m alone
I?m not a king of the world
But I?m a king of the streets
I?m gonna rattle your bones
Don?t call me lazy
Cause I?m a dangerous man
I?m not a king of the world
But I?m a king of the streets
I guess I?m good as dead

Well I am the pharmacist
I am the dirty fiend
I?ve got the coldest kiss
You are embarrassed of me
I?ve got blood on my shoes from another man
I can?t walk
Here we?re sleeping
But please don?t tell them this
There?s no mercy in their treatment

Mercy, mercy, mercy
We take the pills
Take the pills
Mercy, mercy, mercy
It?s twice the thrill

And I?m falling asleep
To escape this dream

They call me crazy
They say I?m alone
I?m not a king of the world
But I?m a king of the streets
I?m gonna rattle your bones
Don?t call me lazy
Cause I?m a dangerous man
I?m not a king of the world
But I?m a king of the streets
I guess I?m good as dead

Mercy, mercy, mercy
We take the pills
Take the pills
Mercy, mercy, mercy
Lean back and take the pills
Mercy, mercy, mercy
We take the pills
Take the pills
Mercy, mercy, mercy
Lean back and take the pills

And I?m falling asleep
To escape this dream

They call me crazy
They say I?m alone
I?m not a king of the world
But I?m a king of the streets
I?m gonna rattle your bones
Don?t call me lazy
Cause I?m a dangerous man
I?m not a king of the world
But I?m a king of the streets
I guess I?m good as dead
