Devils Den Lyrics by Jefferson Starship

Dragon Fly

0

[Verse 1]
There is no color in the king
And he's softer than a queen
Confusion reigns, sometimes it reigns
Now a colored sky never makes anybody cry
But a gray cloud always makes it rain
Mmm, sometimes it rains
[Verse 2]
He only has the moves of a knight
But he wants the absolute freedom of a queen
Too bad the only money he's got's all coming in colored American green
You know it's worthless paper you can spend or save
Go ahead and count that by yourself, but look out
Somebody's looking
You're supposed to do that by yourself—count it
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
He says he's not doing anything wrong
He thinks he's just another part of the royal story
But does it always have to start that way?
Always ending with one man's warning
Don't talk back, some ruler says
Or everything you need will go away
And every answer you think you've ever said is just a guess
And the king of clocks just locks up every day
[Verse 4]
Clock strikes damn near perfect at night
But it moves so slow in the morning light
King says a crown never makes a man but we all know different
Yeah, we all know
He thinks he's
Oh, he thinks he's born to glory
Heh, he thinks he's born to glory
[Violin Solo]
[Outro]
Is that gray man sane? No color, no name
Is that gray man sane? No color, no name
Is that gray man sane? No color, no name
Is that gray man sane? No color, no name
Is that gray man sane? No color, no name
Is that gray man sane? No color, no name
Is that gray man sane? No color, no name
Is that gray man sane? No color, no name
Is that gray man sane? No color, no name
Is that gray man sane? No color, no name
