Gazpacho

Saw you walking on your velvet lawn

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 no one 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 losin' his grip again

They said you're bullet proof, they said you feel no pain

It seems the hero is misunderstood again

Is it love or is it surgery

Makes her seem 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 the 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
