King of Riverside Park feat. Steve Wynn

歌詞

Leaning over shaky ground and daring it to bring me down Dancing on the edge of darkness, wondering if I'll ever drown When they tip the house of cards, I'll do my best to act surprised Standing on the riverside and waiting for the tide to rise Watching all the ships go by with fire rising from the deck Scavengers leave empty handed, nothing left aboard the wreck The promise of all the gold was just the devil in disguise Standing on the riverside and waiting for the tide to rise Juggler and a joker, preacher and a petty thief All walked into a bar, looking for some sweet relief Said the preacher to the thief, "We're all the same in his eyes When we're standing by the riverside, waiting for the tide to rise" The revolution did go as planned Done in by timing, finished by the hand of man Termites and maggots delighted in the things they found I wonder why it took so long to bring them down
