Rascal King lyrics
by Mighty Mighty Bosstones



From the album let's face itWell he was fueled by a lackDrew inspiration from a needSo many problems to crackAnd mouths to feedCrooked was the pathAnd brazen was the walkA cocky swagger, up the ladderAnd could he ever talkThe last hurrah? Nah! I'd do it againThe rascal king behind the barsOr the one in front of themThe love of godAnd constant contradictionsWith just a smile, wink or nodWhat's stranger fact or fiction? And never ceasing to amazeOn a regular basisFirst hand into his pocketOr first fist into the facesThe last hurrah? Nah! I'd do it againThe rascal king behind the barsOr the one in front of themA legendary characterWhen? Only thenWhere? Only thereA hero or a hooligan? Well, that part's never clearPride or shame, it's all the sameWho's innocent or who's to blame? Politics or just a game? Well in the end they knew his nameThe last hurrah? nah! I'd do it againThe rascal king behind the barsOr the one in front of them
