1
A ragged man came shuffling through
2
A puppet king on the 4th of June
3
And butterflies from all around
4
Settled on his paper crown
5
A pretty sight it seemed to be
6
An avenue of eternal peace
7
But he said, what is here can soon burn down
8
I'm the king of sunset town
9
Watch a big wheel turning round
10
Some go up, some go down
11
Some go thirsty, some just drown
12
That's the law round here
13
Said the king of sunset town
14
And in the night, he comes to me
15
And the square becomes a battlefield
16
Of staring eyes that can't explain
17
The insanity and the greater game
18
Watch a big wheel turning round
19
Some go up, some go down
20
Some go thirsty, some just drown
21
That's the law round here
22
Said the king of sunset town
23
That's the law round here
24
A ragged man came shuffling through
25
The corridors of this white place
26
And as he lay his body down
27
I saw the scars that lined his face
28
And injured souls came to his bed
29
To hear the stories he would tell
30
Of butterflies and summertimes
31
And everyone assembled here
32
Remembers how it used to be
33
Before the 27th came
34
This place will never be the same
35
And he said, he said, I'm the king of sunset town
36
I'm the king of sunset town
37
I am the king of sunset town
38
I'm the king of sunset town
39
Watch a big wheel turning round
40
Some go up, some go down
41
Some go thirsty, some just drown
42
That's the law round here
43
I said, that's the law round here
44
I'm the king of sunset town
45
Said, I'm the king of sunset town
46
Yeah, I'm the king of sunset town
47
I'm the king
