The Man Wo Would Be King Songtext

von The Libertines

I've got a secret for ya
I've been told if you want to make it in this game
You gotta have the luck
You gotta have the look

To make what I quite like to make it through the night
My heart beats slow fast, I don't feel right
With a sleight of hand I might die
What about you over there?
Don't you think I care?
Well I know you know I know you know I know
And to the man who would be king
I would say only one thing
And to the man who would be king
I will say only one thing

La la la-la-la-laa
La la la-la-la-laa

I lived my dream today
And I have lived it yesterday

And I'll have lived it tomorrow
No don't look at me that way
Well I heed the words you say...
But my heart has gone astray
I watched frienship slip away
But it wasn't s'posed to be that way
I lived my dreams today
I lived it yesterday
And I'll be living yours tomorrow
Anything else to say?
I lived my dream today
I lived it yesterday
And I'll be living yours tomorrow
So don't look at me that way!

What's about you, Nancy my dear
What's about you, Nancy my dear
What's about you, Nancy my dear
What will you do when she comes here?
Oh she'll kill me
Oh, I don't wanna kill me

And to the man who would be king
I would say only one thing
And to the man who would be king
I would say only one thing

La la la-la-la-laa
La la la-la-la-laa

Perish the day when they heed what you say
They'll take you away if they don't like what you say
They don't like what you say

So come what may but I'll never stay
