Danny Michel - King of Fools Lyrics
Once I was the king of the foolsAnd they'd buy me drinks and egg me onBut I escaped while they were asleep'Cause I knew that they'd soon turn on meSo wake up the horses and clowns'cause the circus is leaving this townSo lets rack up my tab and shoot me some poolAnd say goodbye to the king of the foolsOnce I lived in a town full of friendsAsleep at the wheel and I'd always win,But my head was full with bourbon and bullAnd I was the biggest fool of allSo wake up the horses and clowns'cause the circus is leaving this townSo fire the band and pull up a stoolAnd drink to the king of the foolsYa, and drink with the king of the foolsOh how they'd keep me 'roundWith good wine and food'Til I was sickened by the things that I'd doBut this ship is sinking and there's nothing to doSo grab on to someone and swim like a foolOnce I was the king of the foolsJumping through hoops trying to show the worldSo break out the pitchforks and houndsAnd we'll run him right out of this townSo You build the fire and I'll bring the fuelAnd we'll bun that king of the foolsBut here I go, off I go, down I go again
