lyrics

The factory worker said "Hey man, don't be sad. We clock out in two hours, it's really not so bad. Health plan and benefits are pretty rad."
Then he lit up his cigarette and walk away.

I am the lion, hear me roar.
Just drivin' through the city in my Chevy four door.
Yes, I am the king. But who fucking cares?
Cause I am the king, the king of bullshit.

Today I woke up and I didn't feel anything at all.
My emotions have faded as I stare at the wall.
The best thing I had today was my morning coffee.
The best thing I'll have tomorrow is the same thing.

I am the lion, hear me roar.
Just drivin' through the city in my Chevy four door.
Yes, I am the king. But who fucking cares?
Cause I am the king, the king of bullshit.

If only I had finished college I'd be on the right track,
I'd make a lot of money, pay my loans back.
I'd wear a suit and tie and go on conference calls.
Buy a frame and hang a piece of paper on my wall.

I am the lion, hear me roar.
Just drivin' through the city in my Chevy four door.
Yes, I am the king. But who fucking cares?
Cause I am the king, the king of bullshit.
