Jackopierce - The Kid Stays in the Picture lyrics

Artist: Jackopierce

album: The Dalhattan Project, Vol. 1


They shot the messenger with an arrow
From a bow
Just goes to show you
What some people do with their sorrow
The Queen called in the courtsmen
Seems the absent King wasn't missing
He was just out drinking alone again in bottle oh oh oh
So drunk he wrote a note
Abandoning the realm
The kid stays in the picture
Nothing lasts forever
Don't it make ya wanna laugh
Smile
But the arrow didn't do the trick
It passed right through his coat
And missed the mark
He ripped off his t-shirt and he offered up his heart
The Queen called off the marksmen
Seems the absent king was dismissive
She summoned the royal artist
To capture the touching minute
She said
The kid stays in the picture
Nothing lasts forever
Don't it make ya wanna laugh
Smile
Take it easy now my lady
Can I call you baby?
I just delivered the dispatch
I don't write the paragraphs
It's the King's own hand
I don't use no em dash
Just give me another change
And I'll smile
