Lyrics:

KING OF THE HILL

(look out now)
shadows stretch down alleyways
there’s danger in the air
lost little girls drift on out
tight leather skirts and bottled hair

midnight boys hard as nails
angel eyes and Crow tattoos
prowl the crumbling streets at night
in their shiny jet-black boots

(singin’)
ooh-la-la-la...la-la-la...
who says that looks don’t kill
ooh-la-la-la...la-la-la
one day I’ll be King of the Hill

neon signs, silent screams
the boulevard of broken dreams
yeh, growing up sure as hell ain’t quite what it used to be
shiny black Cadillac pulls up Ace of Spades at the wheel
God in heaven, Lucifer
man, I’d sell my soul for that piece of steel

(and they’re singin’)
ooh-la-la-la...
what you got for a thrill
ooh-la-la-la...
just to be like the King of the Hill

heaven knows what that man’s made of
nothing can ever bring him down
he rules the nights like royalty
he’s got money and power
a ticket out... a chance to change in this land of no escape
so in the end it doesn’t matter how he won this dirty game

lonely eyes far from home
how we all wind up here
trapped inside his Cobra wreck
Jimmy Dean never showed his fear

fallen angels gather ‘round
for one last deadly thrill
don’t stop and think
just do as I say
listen to the King of the Hill

(singin’)
ooh-la-la-la...
anything for a thrill
laughs the man with the pills
smiles the man as he kills
you’v been used by the King of the Hill
I’ll bide my time until...
one day I’ll be King of the Hill...
