Kings Horses Lyrics
Jokers believe what they're told more or less
So pull up an armchair lets drink to success
Everyone laughed at the things that you said
At all the kings horses and all the kings men
When the back lights have broken
Then all that you built will come tumbling down
Don't try to hold it
You know you can always start over again
Tell me a story or sing me a tune
Remember the one 'bout the man on the moon?
In the morning i swear i will tell you the truth
How you receive it, well, that's up to you
When the back lights have broken
Then all that you built will come tumbling down
Don't try to hold it
You know you can always start over again
I know i should ask you
But everyone got scared
I just want to help you
But everyone got scared
I should have told you
That everyone knows what they wished they had said
Now the back lights have broken
And all that you built has come tumbling down
So don't try to hold it
You know you can always start over again
So pull up an armchair lets drink to success
Everyone laughed at the things that you said
At all the kings horses and all the kings men
Then all that you built will come tumbling down
Don't try to hold it
You know you can always start over again
Remember the one 'bout the man on the moon?
In the morning i swear i will tell you the truth
How you receive it, well, that's up to you
Then all that you built will come tumbling down
Don't try to hold it
You know you can always start over again
But everyone got scared
I just want to help you
But everyone got scared
That everyone knows what they wished they had said
And all that you built has come tumbling down
So don't try to hold it
You know you can always start over again

a great song... one of the best off the new album!
I love this song...it's kind of sad but I can't really describe it. The chorus is apparently about picking yourself up and starting over again, not giving up, etc. but the verses seem like he has a secret or something like that...so maybe it's about a couple breaking up ... ?
ok never mind ignore me...lol
To me it's about a break-up. Or maybe the relationship never even got to start for one reason or another. Maybe he didn't admit he liked her or something... or maybe that's just my life?
gosh, only 3 comments jet is soo amazing! one of my favorite bands for sure!! i do think it has something to do with a break up, that whole starting over. Such a sweeet song, i can sing it forever! same with any jet tune!!! :)
No one got the humpty dumpty references? Really?
