Slow Club - Tattoo of The King lyrics

[Verse 1: Charles Watson] I saved up for two whole years To get this tattoo of the king Right across my heart Right across my chest Right about where those Double bypa** scars start He's not strange these days He's looking at me now [Verse 2: Charles Watson] I hear the guitar music Is coming back here anyday So I look to the boys With their j**els on the floor Trying to remember the moment It went away He's not strange these days He's looking at me now [Chorus: Charles Watson] No I don't want to be what you want [?] the shelf Don't wanna be the running joke Just over your shoulder Don't wanna be the reasons why You learn to lie so well I just wanna be I I just wanna be [Verse 3: Charles Watson] Your daddy worked for the RAF He never stayed around for too long You were good at making friends Not so good at keeping them But we're always able to forget them by the end of the song [Verse 4: Charles Watson] To all of the lovers and all of the dreamers Who dare not look down To all of the debutants who find themselves Waiting it out in the [?] Some back us down Don't give the game away They want you in your place [Chorus 2: Charles Watson] Oh I don't wanna be the one to whisper in the ear Don't wanna be the failing entertainer that you once held dear Don't wanna be up all night working like a dog But I sleep all day And take the evenings off Sleep all day Oh And take the evenings off Sleep all day Oh And take the evenings off
