The small details of the a day...paying a bill, making love, walking across a busy street...
lyrics
Feel Like A King
I feel like a king when I pay the phone bill
When a promise I’ve made is finally fulfilled
I feel like a king when there’s cash in the vault
When the shit hits the fan
And its clearly not my fault
I feel like a king
When I detect
Even the slightest hint of truth
Pass my lips
And I’ll cry,
I’ll sing,
Till I,
Feel like a king beside you.
I feel like a king when my lover’s breath
Comes quick and comes hard,
In her little death
I feel like a king when I pray and when I’m heard
When the word becomes flesh and the flesh becomes word
I feel like a king
When I command
The legions of pleasure
With my own hand.
And I’ll cry,
I’ll sing,
Till I,
Feel like a king beside you.
