King Of The Asylum

(album: The Clarks - 1991)

Your mama cries your daddy lies your sister falls to the ground
You make your way upstairs pulling out what's left of your hair
The spinning starts to die down

King of the asylum
King of the asylum for a day
King of the asylum
King of the asylum for a day

You were the one you had your fun
But you left it along the way
But i got the joke you gotta smoke
You didn't care anyway

King of the asylum
King of the asylum for a day
King of the asylum
King of the asylum anyway

Tell me when he laugh tell me when he cries
Tell me when he's gone way down inside
Tell me when he lives i know he's gonna die
Tell me when he's gone i won't be mighty mighty
Mighty mighty surprised
To find you're still around you never left town
You should've got on that out of town train

King of the asylum
King of the asylum for a day
King of the asylum
King of the asylum for a day
King of the asylum
King of the asylum for a day
King of the asylum
King of the asylum anyway

Tell me when he laugh tell me when he cries
Tell me when he's gone way down inside
Tell me when he lives i know he's gonna die
Tell me when he's gone i won't be mighty mighty
Mighty mighty surprised
