Smallest of kings

(Ooh)

Walking home past the grocery store
The plastic crates are stacked high
I check the time on the station clock
It’s running three minutes slow
I recognize the dent in the fence
Where we climbed to watch the sky
The smell of the laundry vent
Is the only warmth I know
You had a whistle made of tin
And a jacket two sizes too big

My shoes are worn at the heel
The wind has a bitter feel
(A bitter feel)

King of the night
(King of the night)
Smallest of kings
Counting our change
For colorful things

The vending machine swallows my coins
Just like it did back then
The neighborhood has a different name
But the stairs still creak the same
I buy the soda with the marble inside
And I''m seven years old again
You told me we would leave this town
Catch a boat or a heavy train
Now I just wait for the local bus
And stand in the cooling rain

King of the night
(King of the night)
Smallest of kings
Counting our change
For colorful things

The rent is due on Tuesday next
The world got heavy and loud
I still look for your messy hair
In every passing crowd
(In every crowd)
(Where are you now)

King of the night
