King of Fools - Rafferty

Beauty pearls on the disco ante

Boiled and shinning like a brand new

She says, «Welcome to Hell»

I say, «Call me Dante»

She’s got the mind of a demon

And a glass of white wine

She’s my coast in the fire

My needle and my spoon

All I want is to get high on her and never leave the room

But everybody’s gotta be played sometimes

Played sometimes, played sometimes

Forever every game I played was by my rules

And everybody’s gotta be played sometimes

Played sometimes, played sometimes

Never did I think that I would play the fool

I’m the king of, I’m the king of, I’m the king

I’m the king of fools

I’m the king of, I’m the king of, I’m the king (of fucking)

I’m the king

Warm embrace, I’m on a floating disaster

I love the skies, it’s a cruise ship heist

the feast when you mess with the master

Little tap of the iceberg and pay that price

She’s my coast in the fire

My needle and my spoon

All I want is to get high on her and never leave the room

But everybody’s gotta be played sometimes

Played sometimes, played sometimes

Forever every game I played was by my rules, oh

And everybody’s gotta be played sometimes

Played sometimes, played sometimes

Never did I think that I would play the fool

I’m the king of, I’m the king of, I’m the king (of fucking)

I’m the king of fools

I’m the king of, I’m the king of, I’m the king

I’m the king

Heavy is the head that wears the crown, crown

Heavy is the head that wears the crown in this life

But everybody’s gotta be played sometimes

Played sometimes, played sometimes

Forever every game I played was by my rules

And everybody’s gotta be played sometimes

Played sometimes, played sometimes

Never did I think that I would play the fool

I’m the king of

I’m the king now, no
