lyrics

And while you were waiting for you coronation
Everybody else was moving on.
You can tell me that you stayed out all night if you want to
When I know your only hope is the dawn.

It makes me laugh to think you're down
Because you never got your crown
Stuffed inside your P.O. Box.
You'd rather sit in bed alone
And sing into your micro-throne
Expecting that your public knocks.

And while you were waiting for your coronation
Everybody else was moving on.
You can tell me that you stayed out all night if you want to
When I know your only hope is the dawn.

The saddest part is that you think you've been anointed
Because you've got a few friends that seize upon your every word.
You walk around and make believe that you're King Arthur
When it seems to me that you're more like Richard the Third.

You won't be satisfied unless
You're a successor, not just a success,
And I'm not sure that you're all there.
And when I ask the reason why,
I only get a curt reply,
And you just say we'll lose our heir.

And while you were waiting for your coronation
Everybody else was moving on.
You can tell me that you stayed out all night if you want to
When I know your only hope is the dawn.
I know your only hope is the dawn.
