American King
Tell me your worries and I'll lend an ear
Nothing is secret in here
I'll drop you a line and you'll toss me a dime
I'll make all your fears disappear
Hold me up on your pedestal now
Make me feel like a king
Nothing seems impossible now
Except I've got you on my string
I'll tell you you're weak just to make you feel strong
But I could never do wrong
I'll feed you a lie for the opposite side
Just so you can sing a fight song
Tell me how you like your life now
I've put the chains on your feet
Nothing's ever happening now 'cuz it's you who's been choosing defeat
I've taken your mind so far away
It's taking a holiday
If boy George could only see me now
He'd be leaving his grave under ground
Yes I'm a king
An American King
And my bird can sing
I've been working for years
Igniting your fears
And now you want me for more
I'm the permanent peer
It's take it not leave it for sure
Yes I'm your king
An American King
Yes I'm your king
An American King
I'm royalty
Bringing you to your knees
Yes I'm your king
I'm an American
I'm an American
I'm an American
I'm an American King
Ms. H please hand me my crown
Nothing is secret in here
I'll drop you a line and you'll toss me a dime
I'll make all your fears disappear
Hold me up on your pedestal now
Make me feel like a king
Nothing seems impossible now
Except I've got you on my string
I'll tell you you're weak just to make you feel strong
But I could never do wrong
I'll feed you a lie for the opposite side
Just so you can sing a fight song
Tell me how you like your life now
I've put the chains on your feet
Nothing's ever happening now 'cuz it's you who's been choosing defeat
I've taken your mind so far away
It's taking a holiday
If boy George could only see me now
He'd be leaving his grave under ground
Yes I'm a king
An American King
And my bird can sing
I've been working for years
Igniting your fears
And now you want me for more
I'm the permanent peer
It's take it not leave it for sure
Yes I'm your king
An American King
Yes I'm your king
An American King
I'm royalty
Bringing you to your knees
Yes I'm your king
I'm an American
I'm an American
I'm an American
I'm an American King
Ms. H please hand me my crown
