New King (acoustic) Lyrics by Constantines

0

Your mother and father
Walked out of the city
Bound together as they were bound to be
To pull a fortune from a river
Drink the syrup from the tree
Kith and kin
When the ice gets thin
We’ll forage and we’ll fend
As you delivered we’ll begin
To deliver them
Your father on the radio
Your mother on the hill
Put these words together
With their bodies and their will
Kith and kin
When the ice gets thin
We’ll forage and we’ll fend
As you delivered we’ll begin
To deliver them
Show your faces, hear the sound
There’s a new king coming ‘round
You came to this world naked
To be set inside their hands
They will nurse and decorate you
And learn you how to stand
In your mother’s leather jacket
And your father’s cotton shirt
Grow up good into the light
Grow down deep into the dirt
Kith and kin
When the ice gets thin
We’ll forage and we’ll fend
As you delivered we’ll begin
To deliver them
Show your faces, hear the sound
There’s a new king coming ‘round
Your mother and father
Walked out of the city
Bound together as they were bound to be
To pull the bed from new beginnings
Of drift wood and fallen leaves
