Lyrics
King of Nothing © March 12, 2012: Stan Loh Verse 1 When the wind bites I hide my face, Scramble for stairwells, Precious spot above the grate, Though it’s cold like hell, It’s part of me, the smell of piss, Hot showers that I miss, Cardboard are precious things, I’m a binner king … King of Nothing. Verse 2 Shopping cart I didn’t steal, Walmart wouldn’t mind, Sally’s scone the only meal, Contributions kind, There’s no silver in them bottles, Depots shut me out, When cops come kicking bums, I’m but a crumb … I’m King of Nothing. Bridge Eye sore from neon lights keep moaning, What’s worse are hunger pangs that keep growing, I’m King of Nothing! King of Nothing! Verse 3 People spit into my cap, I still bless their souls, Tourists come around with maps, My spot ain’t freehold, Smelling pizza in the air, Hoping someone cares, City Hall and empty words, Oh what promise brings … They’re kings of Nothing.
