Here are the lyrics:
(verse)
There's a little black spot on the sun today
It's the same old thing as yesterday
(verse)
There's a black hat caught in a high tree top
There's a flag pole rag and the wind won't stop
(ref.)
I have stood here before in the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
(verse)
There's a fossil that's trapped in a high cliff wall
(That's my soul up there)
There's a dead salmon frozen in a waterfall
(That's my soul up there)
(verse)
There's a blue whale beached by a springtide's ebb
(That's my soul up there)
There's a butterfly trapped in a spider's web
(That's my soul up there)
(ref.)
I have stood here before in the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
(preref.)
There's a king on a throne with his eyes torn out
There's a blind man looking for a shadow of doubt
There's a rich man sleeping on a golden bed
There's a skeleton choking on a crust of bread
(verse)
There's a red fox torn by a huntsman's pack
There's a black winged gull with a broken back
(verse)
There's a little black spot on the sun today
It's the same old thing as yesterday
(ref.)
I have stood here before in the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I always thought you could end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain......
I'll always be king of pain..............
