King For A Day

Lyrics of King For A Day by Cameron Whitcomb

Verse

It′s kinda funny, as the world is crumbling

I have managed to find my peace

And often I feel sorta guilty, privileged and filthy

Getting seconds while the rest never eat

Mom, I made it, your son has got a name

And you can brag to your Facebook friends, but we shouldn't forget

While we′re thriving, most are just surviving

Missing meals just to pay for the rent

Chorus

But if I was king for a day

I would sell my throne

Buy a castle for my friends to go

Give me a crown for a week

I would make it cheap

Free liquor and a place to eat

'Cause we're dying for a living

Tryna make a killing off of pennies don′t make no sense

But if I was king for a day

We would all be rich

Anything′s better than this

Verse

It's getting lonely, I haven′t seen my homies

Tommy's working twelve-hour shifts, it′s like he doesn't exist

From cutting lines to working overtime

′Cause he's married with a couple of kids

I could flip the script, I could fix the system

Put the ladies in the yard and the boys in the kitchen

Would it work? I don't know, but it′d sure be great

Give me a month, I′ll be burned at the stake

Chorus

But if I was king for a day

I would sell my throne

Buy a castle for my friends to go

Give me a crown for a week

I would make it cheap

Free liquor and a place to eat

'Cause we′re dying for a living

Tryna make a killing off of pennies don't make no sense

But if I was king for a day

We would all be rich

Anything′s better than this

Bridge

Citizens of the world, hear me now

I'm gonna bring peace to the streets

If your wife needs new tits

If you need a bigger dick, I′m gonna make that happen for you

Government-funded G-Wagons, cocaine, and milkshakes

Vote for me now

Chorus

'Cause if I was king for a day

I would sell my throne

Buy a castle for my friends to go

Give me a crown for a week

I would make it cheap

Free liquor and a place to eat

'Cause we′re dying for a living

Tryna make a killing off of pennies don′t make no sense

But if I was king for a day

We would all be rich

And maybe it would all go to shit
