I’m a little bit lost
And a little bit lonely,
In the city....
But don't feel pity....
Don't feel pity
I've got a little bit stuck
And a little bit stoned,
In the summer....
Telling me he's a gonner..
Yes, He's a gonner
(Pre-Chorus)
taxis screaming past us
In the early hours,
And the grieving widows
Have delivered all their flowers ,
..
[Chorus]
Yes I was the king... of these nowhere towns
Paper soldiers dressed up in Christmas crowns,
Times lost its meaning in this social trial
They keep talking about tomorrow,
but i don't listen now
[Guitar]
Im a little bit stunned,
And a little bit stuck,
In the past....
thinking im living too fast.....
Living too fast
Im a little bit backwards,
In coming forward,
With romances....
Telling me who he fancies....
Is who I really fancy
(Pre-Chorus)
taxis screaming past us
In the early hours,
And the grieving widows
Have delivered all their flowers ,
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Yes I was the king... of these nowhere towns
Paper soldiers dressed up in Christmas crowns,
Times lost its meaning in this social trial
They keep talking about tomorrow,
but i don't listen now
[Guitar]
[Guitar]
[Bridge]
We had cigarette sunsets on bedroom walls,
Missed connections from our midnight calls,
Our photographic memories have all started to eraze
All the love and the lies, and the ones who finally got laid
[Final Chorus]
I was the king, of these nowhere towns
Paper soldiers dressed up in Christmas crowns,
Time lost its meaning in this social trial
They keep talking,
But i don't listen now
