The King Blues Album

This is for the messed up kids bound like dynamite,
The wandering drunks out on the town tonight,
For the romantic killer that's never been caught,
For the crackpot who hit the jackpot and stopped.

This is those who climb right to the top,
Just to feel what it's like to drop,
For the critical mass that converges,
For the pedophile suppressing his urges.

This is for the soldier in contempt of court,
Cause he believed in freedom of thought.
This is for the baby who struggles to talk,
But can manage to gargle the language of God.

This is for the origami swan,
Who dared to soar up to the sun.
This is for the outcasts, the freaks and the schemers,
This is for the last of the dreamers.

Just a glimpse of the future we're buying
Behind them hands are you laughing or crying?
You fall apart when we ain't complying
And we ain't gonna take this no more
In the fog vampire blood suckers
Fight them off by flinging nunchacku's
You can't stop us, up for the ruckus
And we ain't gonna take this no more

Cut the bankers, cut the MP's
Cut the rich and the riot police
Cut the state and cut the war
But they might cut the poor

We are fighting back and we are f*cking angry
We are fighting back and we are f*cking angry
We are fighting back and we are f*cking angry
We are fighting back

Hang the judge and kill the jury
Come alive and use your fury
The future will write the history
And we ain't gonna take this no more
Vote of faith and we get what we ask for
This is class war, this is class war
It's what we wear our hoods and our masks for
And we ain't gonna take this no more

Cut the bankers, cut the MP's
Cut the rich and the riot police
Cut the state and cut the war
But they might cut the poor

We are fighting back and we are f*cking angry
We are fighting back and we are f*cking angry
We are fighting back and we are f*cking angry
We are fighting back... back

If you cover your ears when we vote or come in peace
Then you give us no choice but to tear down these streets
Students, workers and unemployed unite and rise out of the slum
France, Spain, Greece we're joining you, finally our time has come

We are fighting back and we are f*cking angry
We are fighting back and we are f*cking angry
We are fighting back and we are f*cking angry
We are fighting back

I wake up in the morning take Big Pharma Lozenges
Swallowin' the juice of Israeli blood oranges
Then I sit down and read the newspaper
It tells me the enemy and lets me know the savior
This week's flavor, asylum seekers
As I lace up my blood-stained sneakers
I turn on the television, what have I got?
The war wages on and it's only 8 o'clock!

Fire, fire, well I wanna set the world on fire
Fire, fire, yeah I wanna set the world on fire
Watch it all burn down, we can start again
Fire, fire, fire, fire

They say it's just been invented and it's now in shop
Heaven sent it and cures with just one drop!
So pay the doctor, so be the snipper
We want bigger tits, bigger bigger bigger yeah
This is how we use the greatest minds in science
Not a cure for cancer but a profit for giants
They blind the clients with advertisements
And security heightens
They ain't progress, it's violence

Fire, fire, well I wanna set the world on fire
Fire, fire, yeah I wanna set the world on fire
Watch it all burn down, we can start again
Fire, fire, fire, fire

I make him notice my grotesque protest music
The choice is yours you can slate it or use it
Fight the power!? Man, WE are the power
Planting seeds in concrete streets and they flower
Politics and love ain't meant to be sinister
Primitive but I can't find anything similar
I float around the perimeter
I hope the follow the mob to lynch the Prime Minister!

Fire, fire, well I wanna set the world on fire
Fire, fire, yeah I wanna set the world on fire
Yeah I wanna set the world, I wanna set the world on fire
Watch it all burn down, we can start again
Fire, fire, fire, fire
Fire, fire, fire, fire
(Watch it all burn down, we can start again)
Fire, fire, fire, fire

She had a scream that rattled
The seeds inside the apples
When she uncaged her cackle
Jackals travelled just to battle
She gives the girls screwface
And the men crooked neck
When she walked by my place
I heard a string quartet
Asthmatics lose their breath
The traffic all gets wrecked
The Smokers laps collect
All Their dropped cigarettes
Kids fall onto the decks
Cos they don't watch their steps
And when they're on the floor
They draw her on their etch a sketch
She says that life is like a jungle
and not like a zoo
Participate, don't spectate,
Become the view
Man if Scarface said it
It's just got to be true
So this world, this world right here
This world is for you

I said to all my mates, she won't make a monkey out of me
But when she kissed me it felt like a headbutt
It felt like a headbutt

Staring up at the ceiling
Nurses face disbelieving
Scalpel on arteries
Organs taken larcenies
Holds it up like a trophy
But that heart belongs to Sophie
Slices pieces of me
Each one beats individually
So now I bite the bullet
I'll try to chew right through it
Grinds my teeth to the gums
I gots to see what I've become
There is danger ahead
With a mouthful of lead
but when I fly
It gets harder to deny
So I stood on the shore trying to blow the clouds away
Right back into the sky made out of papier mache
The Sparkles from the moon, danced on top of the waves
Like they knew it was the last song ever to be played

I said to all my mates, she won't make a monkey out of me
But when she kissed me it felt like a headbutt
It felt like a headbutt

She was up high on the stage just dancing it
Breathing fire like God himself had demanded it
Like he'd personally asked and commanded it
Heaven's packed but thanks to her they're still cramming it
She made the sinners blessed by the way that she dressed
Stripteasing, fire breathing, dancing burlesque
Producing beads of cold sweats on mens foreheads
She says welcome to the city of the suffragettes
And if you step out with me you'd better step correct

I said to all my mates, she won't make a monkey out of me
But when she kissed me it felt like a headbutt
It felt like a headbutt
