The Rascal King - The Mighty Mighty Bosstones

Well he was fueled by a lack

Drew inspiration from a need

So many problems to crack

And mouths to feed

Crooked was the path

And brazen was the walk

A cocky swagger up the ladder

And could he ever talk

The last hurrah

Nah I'd do it again

The Rascal King behind the bars

Or the one in front of them

The last hurrah

Nah I'd do it again

The Rascal King behind the bars

Or the one in front of them

The love of God

And constant contradictions

With just a smile wink or nod

What's stranger fact or fiction

And never ceasing to amaze

On a regular basis

First hand into his pocket

Or first fist into the faces

Let' go

The last hurrah

Nah I'd do it again

The Rascal King behind the bars

Or the one in front of them

The last hurrah

Nah I'd do it again

The Rascal King behind the bars

Or the one in front of them

A legendary character

When

Only then Where

Only there

A hero or a hooligan

Well that part's never clear

Pride or shame it's all the same

Who's innocent or who's to blame

Politics or just a game

Well in the end they knew his name

The last hurrah Nah I'd do it again

The Rascal King behind the bars

Or the one in front of them

The last hurrah Nah I'd do it again

The Rascal King behind the bars

Or the one in front of them
