Like A King - Lyrics by Harper Ben


Lyrics
Well Martin's dreamhas become Rodney's worstnightmarecan't walk the streetsto them we are fair gameour lives don't mean a thinglike a king, like a king, like a king
Rodney King, Rodney King, Rodney Kinglike a king, like a king, like a kinghow I wish you could help us Dr. King
Make sure it's filmedshown on national T.V.they'll have no mercya legal lynch moblike the days strung up from the treethe L.A.P.D.like a king, like a king, like a king
Rodney King, Rodney King, Rodney Kinglike a king, like a king, like a kinghow I wish you could help us Dr. King
So if you catch yourselfthinking it has changed for the bestyou better second guesscause Martin's dreamhas become Rodney's worstnightmarelike a king, like a king, like a king
Rodney King, Rodney King, Rodney Kinglike a king, like a king, like a kinghow I wish you could help us Dr. King
