Is it lonely on the moon?
You took a dive and swallowed all you could
Did you drink too much too soon?
Nothing left for you to fight about
And noone wants to see you try
The nearest neighbours are a mile away
Does the ocean hear you cry?
   Punching at the sky
   They say the King is losing his grip again
   They said you're bulletproof, they said you feel no pain
   It seems the hero is misunderstood again
Is it love or is it surgery
Makes her feel so ill at ease?
As she's begging you to please calm down
In her silk Armani on her knees
Did you carry out those threats I heard
Or were you only playing macho?
And the stains on her Versace scarf
Were they really just gazpacho?
   They say the King is watching his back again
   They say the King is losing his grip again
   Raging like a bull to an empty ring
   D'you think they will forgive a hero anything?
Now the ring is just a band of gold
And your wife needs police protection
While you're sparring with the journalists
You're trying to win back her affection
Is this what it means to be a man
Boxing up all your emotion?
So now she's gone and you're alone at last
You can tell it to the ocean
   They say the King is losing his grip again
   They say the King is countin' his numbered days
   You never lost a fight in your whole life
   You never had no trouble sleepin' through the night
   The bottle and your doctor get you through the day
   The boys who run the house'll make it all okay
   You think they will forgive a hero anything?
   Maybe Hollywood... but maybe then again...
Now the ring is just a band of gold...
Drive the road
