I've got another secret for ya
I've been told if you want to make it in this game
You gotta have the luck, you gotta have the look
To make what?
I quite like to make it through the night
My heart beats slow fast, I don't feel right
With a sleight of hand I might die
What about you over there?
Don't you think I care?
Well, I know, you know, I know you know I know
And to the man who would be king
I would say only one thing
And to the man who would be king
I would say only one thing
La la la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La la la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
I lived my dream today
And I lived it yesterday
And I'll have lived it tomorrow
No, don't look at me that way
Well, I heed the words you say
But my heart has gone astray
I watched friendship slip away
But it wasn't supposed to be that way
I lived my dreams today
I lived it yesterday
And I'll be living yours tomorrow
Anything else to say?
I lived my dream today
And I lived it yesterday
And I'll be living yours tomorrow
So don't look at me that way
What about you, Nancy, my dear
What about you, Nancy, my dear
What about you, Nancy, my dear
What will you do when she comes here?
Oh, she'll kill me
Oh, I don't wanna kill me
And to the man who would be king
I would say only one thing
And to the man who would be king
I would say only one thing
La la la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La la la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
Perish the day, perish the day
Perish the day when they heed what you say
Perish the day when they heed what you say
They'll take you away if they don't like what you say
They don't like what you say
So come what may, but I'll never stray
I'll never stray
