Goodnite Irene |
Treat me like a carnival rain king |
Who blew apart in his own hurricane |
He’s laughin' loud, a fool on a hill |
Who should know better, but he never will |
It’s my calling |
And I’m falling |
Driven by the will of the wind |
I know it |
And I know it |
It’s my calling |
And I’m falling |
Driven by the will of the wind |
I know it |
And I know it |
Treat me like a king bee |
Buggin' round in a hollow tree |
He’s living high on borrowed time |
Intoxicated by the sound of his own crying |
It’s my calling |
And I’m falling |
Driven by the will of the wind |
I know it |
And I know it |
It’s my calling |
Had I fought it |
Driven by the will of the wind |
I know it |
And I know it |
Goodnight, Irene |
I see you in my dreams |
I play the part you know so well |
Long live |
Carnival rain king |
King bee |
The king of Mars |
They’re all like me |
Treat me like the king of Mars |
He fell to Earth and ended up behind bars |
He tried to live in a one horse town |
His breaking heart tore the whole place down |
It’s my calling |
And I’m falling |
Driven by the will of the wind |
I know it |
And I know it |
It’s my calling |
And I’m falling |
Driven by the will of the wind |
I know it |
And I know it |
