King For a Day
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Started at the age of 4
My mother went to the grocery store
Went sneaking through her bedroom door
To find something in a size 4
Sugar and spice and everything nice
Wasn't made for only girls
GI Joe in panty hose
Is making room for the one and only
King for a day, Princess by dawn
King for a day in a leather thong
King for a day, Princess by dawn
Just wait 'til all the guys get a load of me
My daddy threw me in therapy
He thinks I'm not a real man
Who put the drag in the Drag Queen
Don't knock it until you tried it on
Sugar and spice and everything nice
Wasn't made for only girls
GI Joe in panty hose
Is making room for the one and only
King for a day, Princess by dawn
King for a day in a leather thong
King for a day, Princess by dawn
Just wait 'til all the guys get a load of me
Sugar and spice and everything nice
Wasn't made for only girls
GI Joe in panty hose
Is making room for the one and only
King for a day, Princess by dawn
King for a day in a leather thong
King for a day, Princess by dawn
King for a day in a leather thong
King for a day, Princess by dawn
King for a day in a leather thong
King for a day, Princess by dawn
Just wait 'til all the guys
Just wait 'til all the guys
Just wait 'til all the guys get a load of me
