Song - Heros
(Lyrics)
I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing will drive them away
We can beat them, just for one day
We can be heroes, just for one day
And you, you can be mean
And I, I'll drink all the time
'Cause we're lovers, and that is a fact
Yes we're lovers, and that is that
Though nothing will keep us together
We could steal time just for one day
We can be heroes for ever and ever
What d'you say?
I, I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
We can beat them, for ever and ever
Oh we can be Heroes, just for one day
I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing will drive them away
We can be Heroes, just for one day
We can be us, just for one day
I, I can remember (I remember)
Standing, by the wall (by the wall)
And the guns, shot above our heads (over our heads)
And we kissed, as though nothing could fall (nothing could fall)
And the shame, was on the other side
Oh we can beat them, for ever and ever
Then we could be Heroes, just for one day
We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes
Just for one day
We can be Heroes
We're nothing, and nothing will help us
Maybe we're lying, then you better not stay
But we could be safer, just for one day
Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh, just for one day
Artist - Steely Dan
Song - King Of The World
(Lyrics)
Hello one and all
Was it you I used to know
Cant you hear me call
On this old ham radio
All I got to say
Im alive and feeling fine
If you come my way
You can share my poison wine
Chorus:
No marigolds in the promised land
Theres a hole in the ground
Where they used to grow
Any man left on the rio grande
Is the king of the world
As far as I know
I dont want your bread
I dont need your helping hand
I cant be no savage
I cant be no highwayman
Show me where you are
You and I will spend this day
Driving in my car
Through the ruins of santa fe
Chorus
Im reading last years papers
Although I dont know why
Assassins cons and rapers
Might as well die
If you come around
No more pain and no regrets
Watch the sun go brown
Smoking cobalt cigarettes
Theres no need to hide
Taking things the easy way
If I stay inside
I might live til saturday
Chorus
