King Ink

Rowland S. Howard, Nick Cave

King Ink strolls into town
he sniffs around

King Ink kicks off his stink-boot
sand and soot and dust and dirt and
he's much bigger than you think
King Ink
King Ink
King Ink
a wake up a King Ink a get up a King Ink a wake up a King Ink
a get up a get up a get up a get up a get up
up up up up up up up up up up...

a bug crawls up the wall

King Ink feels like a bug
and he hates his rotten shell
(he says) cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha...
King Ink a wake up a King Ink a get up a King Ink a wake up a King Ink
a get up a get up a get up a get up a get up
a what's in that room? a what's in that house?
a what's in that room? a what's in that house?
say something, express thyself, say something, express yourself
express... say something loudly Aaaaaahhhh...
a what's in that room? a what's in that house?
sand and soot and dust and dirt and sand and soot and dust and dirt
and-d-d-d-d-d-d-
di-di-di-di-di-di-di di-di-di-di-di-di DIRT

King Ink feels like a bug
swimming in a soup-bowl
he says oh! yer! oh! yer! what a wonderful life
oh! yer! oh! yer! what a wonderful life
oh! yer! oh! yer! what a wonderful life
oh! yer! oh! yer! what a wonderful life
oh! yer! oh! yer! FATS Domino on the radio
yer! oh! yer! what a wonderful life
oh! yer! oh! yer! what a wonderful life
oh! yer! oh! yer! FATS Domino on the radio
yer! oh! yer!
