What It Means
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.
I know what it means
It's a king on his feet with a cavalier face
Such a funny place
He's exhausted and shrewd
Not a man on the move
Just give him a pen
And I can honestly say no
As he can honestly fight
And I know what it means
And I know what it means
And this red ink ain't dry
'Cause this cloth it's not right
Where are you coming from?
But this day it will end
Gather up all his friends and show off a smile
And I can honestly say no
As he can honestly fight
And I know what it means
And I know what it means
