Well, please, please, oh please
I'm beggin' on my knees
Put one in the cup
I got a fatal disease
Could you help me
Get back on my feet?
Why don't you give me
Something you don't need?
Oh girl, I won't ask for your love
But if you show me some love
I'm gonna sing you a song
Going to streetlight circle my home
I'm not a king of the world
But I'm a king of the boat
And I'm falling asleep
To escape this dream
Well, they call me crazy
They say I'm alone
I'm not a king of the world
But I'm a king of the streets
I'm gonna rattle your bones
Don't call me lazy
'Cause I'm a dangerous man
I'm not a king of the world
But I'm a king of the streets
I guess I'm good as dead
Well, I am the pharmacist
I am the dirty fiend
I've got the coldest kiss
You are embarrassed of me
I've got blood on my shoes
From another man
I can't walk
Here we're sleeping
But please don't tell them this
There's no mercy in their treatment
Mercy, mercy, mercy
We take the pills
Take the pills
Mercy, mercy, mercy
It's twice the thrill
And I'm falling asleep
To escape this dream
They call me crazy
They say I'm alone
I'm not a king of the world
But I'm a king of the streets
I'm gonna rattle your bones
Don't call me lazy
'Cause I'm a dangerous man
I'm not a king of the world
But I'm a king of the streets
I guess I'm good as dead
Mercy, mercy, mercy
We take the pills
Take the pills
Mercy, mercy, mercy
Lean back and take the pills
Mercy, mercy, mercy
We take the pills
Take the pills
Mercy, mercy, mercy
Lean back and take the pills
And I'm falling asleep
To escape this dream
They call me crazy
They say I'm alone
I'm not a king of the world
But I'm a king of the streets
I'm gonna rattle your bones
Don't call me lazy
'Cause I'm a dangerous man
I'm not a king of the world
But I'm a king of the streets
I guess I'm good as dead
