A King At Night - Bonnie "Prince" Billy

There is grime on my face

There is crust in my eye

There is no-one in the place

But no-one said goodbye

This is how I start another day in my kingdom

There is hate in my heart

This is how my day starts

There is blood on my hands

From the murder of a man

This is how I start another day in my kingdom

And where is my queen

She’s as gone as can be

She was a fine looking lady

And she liked to go down on me

And I liked to go down on her too

In India, there’s the Taj

On good times there was Raj

And here-ee look and see

All there is is me

This is how I start another day in my kingdom

This is how I start another day in my kingdom

There are good times to be had

Only insane’s really bad

The lord and I agree

It’s not too off to be

What we are

As long as we’re royalty

You fuck and what’s to do (you fuck!)

It’s not your kingdom too
