Stu Larsen - King Street lyrics

i'm wandering these city streets there's nothing here for me all i see is people running round buying sh** they don't need there's a man begging down on king street and he grabs me by the wrist he says 'son you know what the biggest k**er in this world is? it's not money not d** not guns he said it's loneliness and it's k**ing me oh this loneliness it's bringing me down and he'll sleep where the darkness falls he won't get no curtain calls and he's only got one pair of shoes but he's got more serenity than the rest of humanity they've been tricked into waiting in queues and his father is dying he's got something inside of him it makes him feel more wrong than right and his mother'd be lying if she said she weren't crying herself to sleep every night he sees a woman waiting at the station steps her conversation fills the air she's telling the world about the trouble she's seen but no one can hear he wanders in to a church with it's doors wide open he's welcomed in with a half hearted smile some guy tells him he's found all the answers to things like money and d** and guns old man says 'what about this loneliness? cos it's k**ing me oh this loneliness it's bringing me down i'll sleep where the darkness falls i won't get no curtain calls and i've only got one pair of shoes but i've got more serenity than the rest of humanity they've been tricked into waiting in queues and my father is dying he's got something inside of him it makes him feel more wrong than right and my mother'd be lying if she said she weren't crying herself to sleep everynight
