Lyrics Gino Vannelli

Gino Vannelli

King for a Day

Blinded by the magenta spotlight

Stands a disposable commodity

Don't a high price ticket make a star shine so bright

A taste of immortality

And the critics they call you the new boy wonder

And you know just how to make a young girl cry

The more you feed them the more they hunger

As you watch the money multiply

How does it feel to be?

How does it feel to be?

King for a day

You got the whole damn world spinning 'round your middle finger

Hey! Shoot a little skeet with the president

And your mother loves you more for every dollar you bring her

And your latest wife is worth every cent

How does it feel to be?

How does it feel to be?

King for a day

Blinded by the magenta spotlight

Stands a manufactured fantasy

Don't a high price ticket make a star

Shine so bright

And the people love you endlessly

How does it feel to be?

How does it feel to be?

King for a day

How does it feel to be?

How does it feel to be... king
