Everything works for you and I'm aching

These planes are an ocean that's where we grieve

Where we drown, yeah yeah

Open the turnstyles and we're racing

A bit like the drama that unfolds at Churchill Downs

Place your bets, yeah yeah

Spend our time shadow boxin'

Hoping for knockout


King of the ring is silly but

New loves unite, praise the hero king

We hit a low like the Titanic

some kind of affair

She's already gone

who sings la la la la la laa la

who sings la la la la la laa la

who sings la la la la la laa la


Indian princess was a blockbuster

Dances the waltz at her father's country club

The southern boys, yeah yeah

Everyone waits for you mint julips

The dancefloor's an ocean and that's where we drown

Debutantes, yeah yeah

Spend our time shadow boxin'

Hoping for a knockout


King of the ring is silly but

New loves unite, praise the hero king

We hit a low like the Titanic

some kind of affair

She's already gone

who sings la la la la la laa la

who sings la la la la la laa la

who sings la la la la la laa la
