Little King Lyrics - Squeeze

(Difford/Tilbrook) 

When the little king 

Rode on his horse 

Into the darkened wood 

No one believed 

That he'd return 

They thought he'd gone for good 

As he looked down to see the lake 

He found a secret key 

The little king he couldn't wait 

And he rode off nervously 

In a stolen car 

On busy streets 

He spun the leather wheel 

He was burning oil 

In second gear 

As the tyres loudly squealed 

And the bouncers on the kerb 

Jumped right out of the way 

He smashed into a superstore 

And he didn't feel a thing 

Just a quiet night where the fun begins 

For the little king 

Once life was merry going round 

Then time began to rub 

The future looked as clear as day 

But it quickly turned to mud 

It stuck to him like glue 

What can anybody do 

For the little king 

For the little king

Now the little king 

Is locked away 

To mix with the elite 

In the doghouse now 

He learns new tricks 

From other pedigrees 

It's small town front page news 

The fairy tale your king 

Has scratched his head looking for clues 

He found splinters there 

But one day soon the latch will swing 

For the little king
