Because it impresses all the little girls I see

I am the king of nothing
Will they try to get you out to pull you in
In 1970, some people got their hands on me
I'm gonna be a cowboy in the end

I am the king of everything
And all these people, they've been, come again
Come again, come again, come again
Past railway cars and tranny-whores
What I want to be is an Indian
Say come again, come again, come
Oh, where did we disappear
Where these people who impersonate our friends
Then they take me on their knees again
I guess I bought a gun
And skinny girls who drink champagne
And then they all wanna sleep with me
The feathered thighs of angels
Oh, where did we disappear
And pull me up and out the door
In 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue
Say come again, come again, come again
And then drowns us in the end
In 1495, he barely made it out alive
To the silence that surrounds us
In 1493, he came home across the deep blue sea

With disco lights and disco sounds
In 1494, he did it with the girl next door
When they try to push you out to get you in

And then drowns us in the end
And all these people who impersonate our friends
And then drowns us in the end
And then drowns us in the end

In 1964, [unverified] busting out the door

Into the silence that surrounds us
Say come again, come again, come, come again
And mornings spreading out across
Now I am the king of everything
Where these people who impersonate our friends
Into the dark Italian underground
Oh, were did we disappear
To the silence that surrounds us
Oh, where did we disappear

To the silence that surrounds us

I am the king of nothing now
