Marillion "The King of Sunset Town" paroles

The King of Sunset Town

A ragged man came shuffling throughA puppet king on the 4th of JuneAnd butterflies from all aroundSettled on his paper crownA pretty sight it seemed to beAn avenue of eternal peaceBut he said, "What is here can soon burn down ...""I'm the king of sunset town"

Watch a big wheel turning roundSome go up, some go downSome go thirsty, some just drown"That's the law round here"Said the king of sunset town

And in the night he comes to meAnd the square becomes a battlefieldOf staring eyes that can't explainThe insanity and the greater game

Watch a big wheel turning roundSome go up, some go downSome go thirsty, some just drown"That's the law round here"Said the king of sunset town"Yeah, that's the law round here"

A ragged man came shuffling throughThe corridors of this white placeAnd as he lay his body downI saw the scars that lined his faceAnd injured souls came to his bedTo hear the stories he would tellOf butterflies and summertimes

And everyone assembled hereRemembers how it used to beBefore the 27th cameThis place will never be the sameHe said (he said)"I'm the king of sunset townI'm the king of sunset townI am the king of sunset townI'm the king of sunset town"

Watch a big wheel turning roundSome go up, some go downSome go thirsty, some just drown"That's the law round hereHey, just that's the law round hereI'm the king of sunset townYeah, I'm the king of sunset townHey, I'm the king of sunset town"
