Lyrics King of Fools - Rafferty

King of Fools

Beauty pearls on the disco ante
Boiled and shinning like a brand new
She says, «Welcome to Hell»
I say, «Call me Dante»
She’s got the mind of a demon
And a glass of white wine
She’s my coast in the fire
My needle and my spoon
All I want is to get high on her and never leave the room
But everybody’s gotta be played sometimes
Played sometimes, played sometimes
Forever every game I played was by my rules
And everybody’s gotta be played sometimes
Played sometimes, played sometimes
Never did I think that I would play the fool
I’m the king of, I’m the king of, I’m the king
I’m the king of fools
I’m the king of, I’m the king of, I’m the king (of fucking)
I’m the king
Warm embrace, I’m on a floating disaster
I love the skies, it’s a cruise ship heist
the feast when you mess with the master
Little tap of the iceberg and pay that price
She’s my coast in the fire
My needle and my spoon
All I want is to get high on her and never leave the room
But everybody’s gotta be played sometimes
Played sometimes, played sometimes
Forever every game I played was by my rules, oh
And everybody’s gotta be played sometimes
Played sometimes, played sometimes
Never did I think that I would play the fool
I’m the king of, I’m the king of, I’m the king (of fucking)
I’m the king of fools
I’m the king of, I’m the king of, I’m the king
I’m the king
Heavy is the head that wears the crown, crown
Heavy is the head that wears the crown in this life
But everybody’s gotta be played sometimes
Played sometimes, played sometimes
Forever every game I played was by my rules
And everybody’s gotta be played sometimes
Played sometimes, played sometimes
Never did I think that I would play the fool
I’m the king of
I’m the king now, no
