Intro
Verse
Won't drink, won't smoke
Won't get home at a hundred o'clock
Nobody's going to satisfy me
Except you and the baby and the colour TV
I was always in my prime
Now I'm falling over the line
The boys are sad to have let me go
But you got it all to get me home
Pre-chorus
You quiet me down
I been all over the place and I ain't found anyone
Keep my feet on the ground, no
Chorus
Can we be bigger than my old habits
Over my dead body but still
If I am awake in the morning
We'll be royal in the afternoon
(You'll be the queen, I'll be the king of it all)
Verse
Words of a drunk
Fade with the light
Satan delivers and the goods are alright
He's at home now counting the dough
I'm standing here for another last throw.
You quiet me down
I been all over the place and I ain't found anyone
Keep my feet on the ground, no
Chorus
Can we be bigger than my old habits
Over my dead body but still
If I am awake in the morning
We'll be royal in the afternoon
Solo in / over
Chorus
Can we be bigger than my old habits
Over my dead body but still
If I am awake in the morning
We'll be royal in the afternoon
(You'll be the queen, I'll be the mad king of it all
Royal in the afternoo-oo-oon...)
