Gamma - Razor King lyrics

rate me

There was a man

Came from my home town

Didn't have no money

He was always down

Johnny Stark that was his name

In a few short years

He was gonna rise to fame

When he was young

He'd have to steal to eat

In my shakedown bed

Shared his sleep

Late at night his papa

Would come home drunk

Shouting at his ma

And calling him a punk

I'm the Razor King

That's what I'll be

You can look out for me now

My weapons will be sharp

I'll get you in the dark again

Some years later

He'd grown up fast

He got right down to it

Didn't wanna be last

He became the leader

Of the local gang

Was singing as he went

And this is what he sang

I'm the Razor King

Oh, you can look out for me now

Johnny Stark's my name

My weapons will be sharp

I'll get you in the dark again

Some years later

His reputation spread

A man with no fear

Or so it was said

Leader of a gang

Now two thousand strong

Johnny didn't realize

That he was doing wrong

Then came the night

He was to lose his crown

Marching down main street

He was going way down

Weapons aflashing

Grit in his eye

Johnny didn't realize

He was gonna die

I'm a Razor King

Ahh, that's what I am

You can look up to me now

Ohhh

La la la la la la la la (etc.)
