The king of the world

You had your time

You were so high

Life was a blessing

Of sweet moments

Of joy and pride

Thad couldn’t last

Things rise and fall

Like leaves in autumn

Your fate was always

To kiss the grown

You had your friends

You let them go

The way you lost them

Was like a curse

Of hate and doom

You aren’t the king of the world

You aren’t the king of the world

You must come down to earth again

(must come down to earth, to earth again)

You aren’t the king of the world

You aren’t the king of the world

You must come down to earth again

Now you are alone

No friends, no dough

Life’s now a burden

Of sullen sorrow

And dismal gloom

You have to learn

To smile again

Someone will teach you

To leave the tunnel

To see the light

You aren’t the king of the world

You aren’t the king of the world

You must come down to earth again

(must come down to earth, to earth again)

You aren’t the king of the world

You aren’t the king of the world

You must come down to earth again

(again, again, again and again)

You aren’t the king of the world

You aren’t the king of the world

You must come down to earth again

(must come down to earth, to earth again)

You aren’t the king of the world

You aren’t the king of the world
