King For A Day - Dr Feelgood

Took my fancy train in 14 days

Now I’m a fancy friend speaking through the air (?)

My, my, my, look at them walk by

These jokers trying to be kings for the day

Come too late, a-wheeling roll-a-dice

Happy in a fool’s paradise

My, my, my, pie in the sky

Jokers trying to be kings for the day

Winners laugh, losers scream

There ain’t no exit from this stream

Old jokers trying to be kings for the day

See them come, see them go

Exit how in a picture show

And the jokers trying to be kings for the day

The Lady Love is pretty but she’s mean

What you say’s a game without a dream

My, my, my, look at them go by

Pie in the sky makes you gonna cry

Old jokers gonna be kings for the day

Old jokers gonna be kings for the day

You know old jokers gonna be kings for the day
