[Intro]
[Verse]
I had a king in a tenement castle
Lately he s taken to painting the pastel walls brown
He s taken the curtains down
He s swept with the broom of contempt
And the rooms have an empty ring
He s cleaned with the tears
Of an actor who fears for the laughter s sting-
[Chorus]
I can t go back there anymore
You know my keys won t fit the door
You know my thoughts don t fit the man
They never can, they never can
[Verse]
I had a king dressed in drip-dry and paisley
Lately he s taken to saying I m crazy and blind
He lives in another time
Ladies in gingham still blush
While he sings them of wars and wine
But I in my leather and lace
I can never become that kind
[Chorus]
I can t go back there anymore
You know my keys won t fit the door
You know my thoughts don t fit the man
They never can, they never can
[Verse]
I had a king in a salt-rusted carriage
Who carried me off to his country for marriage too soon
Beware of the power of moons
There s no one to blame
No there s no one to name as a traitor here
The king s on the road
And the queen s in the grove till the end of the year
[Chorus]
I can t go back there anymore
You know my keys won t fit the door
You know my thoughts don t fit the man
They never can, they never can
