King For A Day Lyrics - Gino Vannelli

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 

[Chorus:] 

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 yor latest wife is worth every cent 

[Chorus] 

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 

[Chorus] 

How does it feel to be? 

How does it feel to be... King.
