[00:00.96]He thought he was the King of America
[00:21.87]Where they pour Coca Cola just like vintage wine
[00:27.66]Now I try hard not to become hysterical
[00:33.12]But I'm not sure if I am laughing or crying
[00:45.84]I wish that I could push a button
[00:56.16]And talk in the past and not the present tense
[01:08.04]And watch this hurtin' feeling disappear
[01:15.57]Like it was common sense
[01:18.30]It was a fine idea at the time
[01:24.78]Now it's a brilliant mistake
[01:30.24]She said that she was working for the ABC News
[01:34.74]It was as much of the alphabet as she knew how to use
[01:45.66]Her perfume was unspeakable
[02:10.86]It lingered in the air
[02:30.18]Like her artificial laughter
[02:35.52]Her mementos of affairs
[02:36.66]Oh I said I see you know him
[02:41.94]Isn't that very fortunate for you
[02:44.58]And she showed me his calling card
[02:45.90]He came third or fourth and there were more than one or two
[02:50.73]He was a fine idea at the time
[02:53.58]Now he's a brilliant mistake
[02:58.08]He thought he was the King of America
[02:59.79]But it was just a boulevard of broken dreams
[03:04.41]A trick they do with mirrors and with chemicals
[03:05.76]The words of love in whispers
[03:11.61]And the acts of love in screams
[03:19.53]I wish that I could push a button
[03:33.84]And talk in the past and not the present tense
[03:39.45]And watch this lovin' feeling disappear
[03:46.50]Like it was common sense
[03:52.23]I was a fine idea at the time
[04:02.01]Now I'm a brilliant mistake
