Ahh I believe your new girl turned you down And they say, "She's pushin' you around" How does it feel? I guess it hurts your pride Tell me my friend how many nights you cried? Disaster and disgrace The king has lost his crown Suddenly he's clumsy like a clown Aaa The world is upside down The king has lost his crown Was it hard to step down from your throne And to know tonight you're all alone? Oh, what a shame, you really want that girl She doesn't care, still you just dream of her Disaster and disgrace The king has lost his crown Suddenly he's clumsy like a clown Haa The world is upside down The king has lost his crown Disaster and disgrace The word is all around Suddenly he's clumsy like a clown Aaa The world is upside down The king has lost his crown Disaster and disgrace The word is all around
