He was a leader of a small gang

Commiting crimes each day

But time has changed where he was proud

It's a far away



He took living easy, his bad reputation

Oh it was known all around

But he didn't care no, he made dirty money

Now he is down and out



Thought he knew the tricks of life

Prowling in the dark

Now he's left by all his friends

'cause he lived apart, of them

He was a leader, malicious and violent

His fame is covered with blood

Now he's just a number, he lost all his power

The king has lost his face



Down down down, though the king lost his crown

Caught and sentenced, he was guilty

Down down down, though the king lost his crown

It's too late- far too high

Late far too high



Bridge- chorus
