lyrics

Once you were a little king
I watched you in the center ring
A fish that soared above the sea
A devil ray BMOC
Such conceit in your cachet
You thought it’d always be that way
El Rey

Seduce the crowd and set your bait
There's nothing left to do but wait
Counting down to cashing in
The colors fading from your skin
Pick up your head and look around
The last to see you've run aground
El Rey

Now there's new kids on the scene
Thing aren't quite the same
As when we were nineteen
Films of what could have been
Keep playing in your head
And you'll talk about it ‘till you're dead

All your friends are famous now
They're suited up for the luau
Still you wait around to be
Plucked out of your obscurity
Beneath the crescent moon and star
While holding court at the back bar
El Rey
