Lyrics King For a Day (Home Demo) - XTC
Everyone′s
creeping
up
to
the
money
God
Putting
tongues
where
they
didn't
ought
to
be
On
stepping
stones
of
human
hearts
and
souls
Into
the
land
of
′Nothing
for
free'
Well,
the
way
that
we're
living
Is
all
take
and
no
giving
There′s
nothing
to
believe
in
The
loudest
mouth
will
hail
the
new
found
way
To
be
king
for
a
day
Everyone′s
licking
up
to
the
new
king
pin
Trying
to
get
a
way
up
with
the
smile
Sing
for
your
supper
boy
and
jump
to
a
finger
click
Ain't
my
way
of
living
in
style
′Cause
the
ladder
gets
longer
And
ambition
gets
stronger
I
can't
satisfy
the
hunger
That
bad
old
moon
has
got
you
in
its
sway
To
be
king
for
a
day,
king
for
a
day
You′re
only
here
once,
so
you
got
to
get
it
right
No
time
to
fuss
and
fight
'Cause
life
don′t
mean
much
If
measured
out
with
someone
else's
plight
'Cause
the
way
that
we′re
living
Is
all
take
and
no
giving
There′s
nothing
much
to
believe
in
The
loudest
mouth
will
hail
the
new
found
way
To
be
king
for
a
day
King
for
a
day
King
for
a
day
King
for
a
day
