King For A Day Lyrics


There's no way I'm coming back to you
I've just got to say that everything we did is through
You tried to undermine the better ranges of my nature
But soon your going to find you should have started talking straighterNow don't you worry, I won't put you down
I'm in no hurry, baby to see you go to ground
Because it's true what they say, you know it's true what they say
You're only king for a day, I guess You're happy that wayWell there's no hope for peace and reconciliation
You're quick to play your hand but what you haven't learnt is patience
So look before you leap to tell the world your colored story
It's clear your talk is cheap, do anything to get your glorySo spread your wings and fly, there is no doubt
You're so sorry inside you've got something to shout about
Because it's true what they say, you know it's true what they say
You're only king for a day, I guess you're happy that wayAnd there's no love ever to be lost between us
I guess this is because he damage that you've done is so grievous
So I hang my head to dwell on what might have been
But what you left instead is pieces of a broken dreamNow don't you worry I won't put you down
I'm in no hurry babe, to see you go to ground
Because it's true what they say, you know it's true what they say

You're only king for a day, I guess you're happy that waySo spread your wings and fly, there is no doubt
You're so sorry inside you've got something to, something to shout about
Because it's true what they say, you know it's true what they say
Your only king for a day, I guess you're happy that wayDon't you see that your only king for a day
You must believe that

Jamiroquai is a funk/acid jazz band which formed in London, England, United Kingdom in 1992. The band currently consists of Jason 'Jay Kay' Cheetham (vocals), Matt Johnson (keyboards), Rob Harris (guitar), Paul Turner (bass), Derrick McKenzie (drums) , Sola Akingbola (percussion), Lorraine McIntosh (backing vocals) and Hazel Fernandez (backing vocals). The name "Jamiroquai" is derived from the Native American Iroquois tribe, with which Kay has said he identifies philosophically, combined with 'Jam', as in musical jamming.

After Jay Kay auditioned unsuccessfully to be the singer of the Brand New Heavies, he decided to put together his own band. Jamiroquai's first single, "When You Gonna Learn?", was released in 1992 on the Acid Jazz label. Following its success, Kay signed a £1,000,000 eight-album record deal with Sony BMG Music Entertainment. The band enjoys worldwide popularity and is the best-known member of the early-1990s London-based acid jazz movement, alongside groups such as Incognito, Galliano, and Corduroy. Jamiroquai has since, however, moved in other musical directions.
