Devils Den

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There is no color in the king And he's softer than a queen Confusion reigns, sometimes it reigns Now a colored sky never makes anybody cry But a gray cloud always makes it rain Mmm, sometimes it rains [Verse 2] He only has the moves of a knight But he wants the absolute freedom of a queen Too bad the only money he's got's all coming in colored American green You know it's worthless paper you can spend or save Go ahead and count that by yourself, but look out Somebody's looking You're supposed to do that by yourself—count it [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] He says he's not doing anything wrong He thinks he's just another part of the royal story But does it always have to start that way? Always ending with one man's warning Don't talk back, some ruler says Or everything you need will go away And every answer you think you've ever said is just a guess And the king of clocks just locks up every day [Verse 4] Clock strikes damn near perfect at night But it moves so slow in the morning light King says a crown never makes a man but we all know different Yeah, we all know He thinks he's Oh, he thinks he's born to glory Heh, he thinks he's born to glory [Violin Solo] [Outro] Is that gray man sane? No color, no name Is that gray man sane? No color, no name Is that gray man sane? No color, no name Is that gray man sane? No color, no name Is that gray man sane? No color, no name Is that gray man sane? No color, no name Is that gray man sane? No color, no name Is that gray man sane? No color, no name Is that gray man sane? No color, no name Is that gray man sane? No color, no name
