| A ragged man came shuffling through
|
| A puppet king on the 4th of June
|
| And butterflies from all around
|
| Settled on his paper crown
|
| A pretty sight it seemed to be
|
| An avenue of eternal peace
|
| But he said, «What is here can soon burn down…»
|
| «I'm the king of sunset town»
|
| Watch a big wheel turning round
|
| Some go up and some go down
|
| Some go thirsty some just drown
|
| «That's the law round here»
|
| Said the king of sunset town
|
| And in the night he comes to me
|
| And the square becomes a battlefield
|
| Of staring eyes that can’t explain
|
| The insanity and the greater game
|
| Watch a big wheel turning round
|
| Some go up and some go down
|
| Some go thirsty some just drown
|
| «That's the law round here»
|
| Said the king of sunset town
|
| «That's the law round here»
|
| A ragged man came shuffling through
|
| The corridors of this white place
|
| And as he lay his body down
|
| I saw the scars that lined his face
|
| And injured souls came to his bed
|
| To hear the stories he would tell
|
| Of butterflies and summertimes
|
| And everyone assembled here
|
| Remembers how it used to be
|
| Before the 27th came
|
| This place will never be the same
|
| He said
|
| «I'm the king of sunset town»
|
| Watch a big wheel turning round
|
| Some go up and some go down
|
| Some go thirsty some just drown
|
| «That's the law round here»
|
| «That's the law round here»
|
| Said the king of sunset town
|
| «I'm the king of sunset town» |
