King Of The World Lyrics


Smoke and mirrors
It's a house of cards
Everybody has windows
And big cigars
The law of the jungle
Is very new to some
The animals are vicious and arrogant
And they eat their young
I used to work my job from 9 to 5
I just survived
I was the king of the world
I had every thing thrown at me,
That the judge and jury could hurl
I was the man of the hour
I would claw and scratch my way up,
To the very top of the tower
Helter skelter
It's a den of thieves

Sea of errors
That a greedy man weaves
A few really bad apples
Always spoil the lot
Rolling blackouts
On everyone's block
I go to work and try to make ends meet
My life is over
I was the king of the world
I had everything I needed,
I owned every type of girl
I was the man of the hour
I would claw and scratch my way,
Up to the very top of the tower
Instrumental Break
I was the king of the world
I had everything I needed,
I owned every type of girl
I was the man of the hour
I would claw and scratch my way,
Up to the very top of the tower

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Angelfish was an alternative rock band from Scotland. The band was made up mostly of former members of the band Goodbye Mr. Mackenzie. Shirley Manson is the best known of them, because Angelfish helped launch her career as the vocalist for the band Garbage. Originally, she played keyboards and did some back-up vocals in Goodbye Mr Mackenzie, but was given the role of lead vocals when GMM became Angelfish.
