King of the Song

[Intro] He would lean into my cradle Rest an revolver on an infant cheek [Pre-Chorus] Speeding and singing Singing and speeding Speeding, singing My infancy to sleep Well, I can hear his voice again And I can hear his song The singing is gone [Chorus] Nobody sings like my daddy sang He was the King of the Song Nobody sings like my daddy sang I know that I had to sing The way that my daddy sang [Verse 1] Do you know what it's like to be born to a legend? To be born to a freak? To face expectation from your first crowning peak at the world? An umbilical peak at this hideous [Bridge] Fame-ridden world Where I hear his song Singing he's gone [Chorus] Nobody sings like my daddy sang He was the King of the Song Nobody sings like my daddy sang I know that I'll never to sing The way that my daddy sang The way that my daddy sang [Verse 2] I am the King of the song I am the King of the song I am the King, the King of the song I am the King of the song I am the King of the song I am the King, the King of the song I am the King of the song I am the King of the song I am the King, the King of the song I am the King of the song I am the King of the song I am the King of the song [Verse 3] What do you mean you don't know my singer? What do you mean that you don't know his song? He was speeding and singing Singing and speeding Speeding, singing Come on, let's sing along [Outro] You can beat his heart again When you sing his song Although he's gone
