Artist/Band: Waterboys
Lyrics for Song: King of London
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Waterboys



Bobby is the ace of hearts

Karen is the queen

Joe is the knight of the working class

With multi-coloured jeans

Ginger and Rose work for UNICEF

Ride around on a tandem

Me I walk on air

Because I'm the King of London



Alan lives in Bethnal Green

His brother gets into fights

Tony lives in Billericay

Talks politics every night

Sheila worked for meals on wheels

Until the council made her redundant

I'm a self made man

Because I'm the King of London



I'm the King of London

I'm the King of London

Don't need speed to make me run

I can look straight into the sun

Because I'm the King of London town



Keith marched for the right to work

Nothing really changed

Man at the bottom was still underground

Face at the top was the same

After all our well made plans

What went wrong I wonder

And I'm not allowed to ask questions anyway

Because I'm the King of London



Bobby is the ace of hearts

Karen is the queen

Freedom to be who they really are

Is something they've never seen

Whether they make it whether they break

Or whether they just go under

I'm not allowed to surrender anyway

Because I'm the King of London



I'm the King of London

I'm the King of London

Don't need speed to make me run

I can look straight into the sun

Because I'm the King of London town
