Well he was, fueled by a lack, drew inspiration from a need
So many problems to crack, and mouths to feed
Crooked was the path, and brazen was the walk
A cocky swagger, up the ladder and could he ever talk
The last hurrah? nah! I'd do it again
The Rascal King behind the bars or the one in front of them
The last hurrah? nah! I'd do it again
The Rascal King behind the bars or the one in front of them
The love of God and constant contradictions
With just a smile, wink or nod, what's stranger fact or fiction?
And never ceasing to amaze, on a regular basis
First hand into his pocket or first fist into the faces
The last hurrah? nah! I'd do it again
The Rascal King behind the bars or the one in front of them
The last hurrah? nah! I'd do it again
The Rascal King behind the bars or the one in front of them
A legendary character (when?) only then (where?) only there (do it again)
A hero or a hooligan? well, that part's never clear (do it again)
Pride or shame, it's all the same, who's innocent or who's to blame? (do it again)
Politics or just a game? well in the end they knew his name
The last hurrah? nah! I'd do it again
The Rascal King behind the bars or the one in front of them
The last hurrah? nah! I'd do it again
The Rascal King behind the bars or the one in front of them
