Song Lyrics

"Teen King"

by Randy Stonehill
Album: The Sky Is Falling

you were a small time session man scuffling around L.A..
nights at the troubadour waiting for a chance to play
and I remember you were hanging around cause you had no place to stay
man that seems like a long long ways away

baby you're the teen king
now they call you the teen king
now that you're a star
all the chicks in the bar
know what you're drinking

well you made yourself a name and you're
sitting on top of the world
and you smile like a heartbreaker shaking up the little girls
and every night when you walk on stage it's always just the same
you've got twenty thousand people screaming out your name

they come to see the teen king
now they call you the teen king
and all the crazy nights
and the flash of the lights just leave you blinking

oooh when are you gonna slow down
oooh when are you gonna slow down teen king


now you're living so high that you're walking on a dangerous line
and don't you know when you fall it's always unkind
hey you were right when you said that it's hard to tell the night time from the day
but you're ending up a desperado anyway

they call you the teen king
now they call you the teen king
well they say they love you so
but you never know just what they're thinking

baby you're the teen king
now they call you teen king
all the crazy nights and flash
of the lights just leave you blinking

baby you're the teen king
now they call you the teen king
now that you're a star all the chicks in the bar
know what you're drinking
tequila sunrise
