yesterdayThere's a black hat caught in a high tree topThere's a flag-pole rag and the wind won't stopI have stood here before inside the pouring rainWith the world turning circles running 'round my brainI guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reignBut it's my destiny to be the king of painThere's a little black spot on the sun todayThat's my soul up thereIt's the same old thing as yesterdayThat's my soul up thereThere's a black hat caught in a high tree topThat's my soul up thereThere's a flag-pole rag and the wind won't stopThat's my soul up thereI have stood here before inside the pouring rainWith the world turning circles running 'round my brainI guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign /But it's my destiny to be the king of painThere's a fossil that's trapped in a high cliff wallThat's my soul up thereThere's a dead salmon frozen in a waterfallThat's my soul up thereThere's a blue whale beached by a springtime's ebbThat's my soul up thereThere's a butterfly trapped in a spider's webThat's my soul up thereI have stood here before inside the pouring rainWith the world turning circles running 'round my brainI guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reignBut it's my destiny to be the king of painThere's a king on a throne with his eyes torn outThere's a blind man looking for a shadow of doubtThere's a rich man sleeping on a golden bedThere's a skeleton choking on a crust of breadKing of painThere's a red fox torn by a huntsman's packThat's my soul up thereThere's a black-winged gull with a broken backThat's my soul up thereThere's a little black spot on the sun todayIt's the same old thing as yesterdayI have stood here before in the pouring rainWith the world turning circles running 'round my brainI guess I always thought you could end this reignBut it's my destiny to be the king of painKing of painKing of painKing of painI'll always be king of pain
