Alfred the Great |
15th heir to the ball and chain |
House full of hungry kids to his name |
Everything to lose and nothing to gain |
Long reign Alfred the Great |
Touched his toes down the company store |
Scrubbed till he see his face in the floor |
Lost his place to a foot in the door |
Long reign Alfred the Great |
He never been too good with words oh no |
Said you don’t need a Doctor you don’t need a Doctor to |
show |
It’s a hard, hard road |
When your folks ain’t cracked the code |
And your tears don’t put food on the plate, Alfred the |
Great watch out |
Ever get the feeling you been stitched up? |
Textbook case of bad, bad luck |
There’s a hole in your bucket and cracks in your cup |
Long reign Alfred the Great |
Touched his toes down the company store |
Scrubbed till he see his face in the floor |
He ain’t gonna dance for the suits no more |
Long reign Alfred the Great |
He never been too good with words oh no |
Said you don’t need a Doctor you don’t need a Doctor to |
show |
It’s a hard, hard road |
When your folks ain’t cracked the code |
And your tears don’t put food on the plate, Alfred the |
Great watch out |
It’s a hard, hard road |
When your folks ain’t cracked the code |
And your tears don’t put food on the plate, and the |
rent won’t wait, oh no |
It’s a hard, hard road |
When your folks ain’t cracked the code |
And your tears don’t put food on the plate, Alfred the |
Great watch out |
Food on the plate, Alfred the Great watch out |
