Lyrics:

With a soft underbelly

And a hardened heart

They say you've got to be tough

If you ain't that smart

I'm sitting here alone

Waiting for my phone to ring



Run out of time

Run out of hope

The boys on the corner never run out of dope

I keep myself high

So I can keep doing my thing



They say "Stupid is as stupid does

And everything's the same as it ever was"

I drink myself blind

Trying to find a new song to sing



Time is money,

And money talks

Bartender, pour me one more whiskey on the rocks

While i try to understand

Why every man wants to be king



Heavy is the head that wears the crown

(wears the crown)

Everybody kicks you when you're down

(when you're down)

Laugh for now; later you can frown

(you can frown)

Heavy is the head that wears the crown

(wears the crown)



With a sweet disposition

And an iron will

A couple nice cars

And a house on a hill

my back account's full

But my soul is still empty and cold

All the money and the clothes

And the sold out shows

Don't mean a damn thing when nobody knows you

And your home is just a house

When you're sitting there alone and you're old




I heard love is a game

I heard love is a rock

And I heard love is a house on a dead end block

But the ending keeps changing every time that the story gets told



Some pray for money

Some pray for rain

And some are just praying for relief from the pain

But some of us will buy

Just about anything we can be sold



Heavy is the head that wears the crown

(wears the crown)

Everybody kicks you when you're down

(when you're down)

Laugh for now; later you can frown

(you can frown)

Heavy is the head that wears the crown

(wears the crown)



I'm a mean old dog

Got a big old gun

I'm a proud new papa

I'm an only son

I'm a beggar

I'm a thief

I'm a liar and a cheater too



I've been around the block

I've been around the sun

I've been up

I've been down

I've been over and done

I've seen the bottom of the pile

And the mountain top

Either will do



Heavy is the head that wears the crown

(wears the crown)

Everybody kicks you when you're down

(when you're down)

Laugh for now; later you can frown

(you can frown)

Heavy is the head that wears the crown

(wears the crown)
