I get up every night and check my face
And take the turn and watch this space
There's nobody can take my place
In this role I'm not the king of rock n roll
I got no answers I got no real style
White complexion and a stick on smile
I'm angry but I'm not hostile
Tell me how [?] I'm not the king of rock n roll
And they said boy
Well pick your window 'cause you're leaving
I never did learn
Not to make a fuss when you're thieving
I go out walking and the streets just burn
Pretty faces everywhere I turn
A boy like me will never learn
On parole I'm not the king of rock n roll
I can't be sure I know I'm not too bright
Got this feeling that I'm always right
I can't ignore the black and white
In my soul [?] I'm not the king of rock n roll
And they said boy
Well pay attention or you'll miss it
If they could explain
Why I'm wrong you know I won't dismiss it
I get up every night and check my face
And take the turn and watch this space
There's nobody could take my place
In this role I'm not the king of rock n roll
And they said boy
Pay attention or you'll miss it
If they could explain
Why I'm so wrong you know I won't dismiss it
