Kim Wilde - King Of The World lyrics

There’s something nasty and it’s sticking on my shoe It’s trying to take over most everything I do How did it happen that it stuck inside my throat I didn’t count on this when I was asked to vote I watch them slide around the corridors of power Too busy stealing while they take away what’s ours You want respect, don’t make me laugh when you deceive us My favourite Dutchy, why’d you ever have to leave us Cooler than you No one’s cooler than you All the things that you’d do If you were king of the world We would all play guitar We would all be a star With our beautiful king of the world Beautiful king of the world A clap of thunder now they’ve taken you away And now the world is crying every single day How could you leave us all to face the stormy weather I guess you knew that we’d be strong enough together Why do they leave the bad and take away the good You were no angel but we all knew where we stood We’re on the guest list and there’s pa**es on the door We’re gonna rock’n’roll before we hit the floor Cooler than you No one’s cooler than you All the things that you’d do If you were king of the world We would all play guitar We would all be a star With our beautiful king of the world Beautiful king of the world Cooler than you Beautiful king of the world Beautiful king of the world
