For King Knife

(album: Man Woman Life Death Infinity - 2017)

A song for king knife
Along the lines of the vine of life
A new song for the king
The king of nearly everything
The king
The king
The king

A dog and a unicycle
A thimble and a thrush, no rush
The show will start without you

A pony and a clown
A ticket to the dance, no chance
The show will start without you

A crown for queen spoon
A lovely eiderdown, been too soon
A new crown for the queen
The queen I've nearly never seen
The queen
The queen
The queen

A wicked little mannikin
A squirrel and a bird, I heard
The show will start without you

A window in a tree
A flourish and a feather forever
The show will start without you
And the show will start without you
Yes the show will start without you
