Down and out in the city
Won't you give a boy a break?
Juvenile on trial before committee
Taken all he can take
Taken all he can take
But the king shall have his vengeance
Well, especially on the poor
Some say preaching to convert him
But me, I'm not too sure
Spring she comes, spring she teases
Brings summer winds and summer breezes
Blow through your hair till autumn leaves us
And when autumn leaves, oh, how winter freezes
And the child is still breathing
With the beating of his heart
Some say we are equal
Some are a million miles apart
But the king shall have his vengeance
While the queen, she represents the innocent
And the child so dependant
But the seasons conquer all
Spring she comes, spring she teases
Brings summer winds and summer breezes
Blow through your hair till autumn leaves us
And when autumn leaves, oh, how winter freezes
But the king shall have his vengeance
Especially on the poor
Some say preaching to convert him
Me, I'm not so sure
