The Show Must Go On
Words and Music by Hurricane TK


I had a friend in the South End
Drivin’ fast back in high school
fancy foreign cars in his garage
He could make his own rules
Champagne and wine, empire on the rise
So easy to lose control
Stock market crashed, his business failed
Now he’s trying to sell his last Ford
King on a throne, those days are gone,
but the show must go on

I know this girl, she was a perfect ten
wearing expensive perfume
Guys always took her to fancy places
Then trying to get to her room
As her bodylines start slowly changing
She wonders whether good things last
found another wrinkle around her eyes
now she spends her time stuck in the past
Queen on a throne, those days are gone
but the show must go on

I drove a thousand miles
I had a story to tell
And I did them all in style
It was for me all the pretty girls fell
Then the Devil came up and told me
Son, it’s your soul you’ve got to sell
Fifty of truth and one hundred lies
Now I mix them, oh, so well
King on a throne, those days are gone
but the show must go on
For the broken hearted, I sing this song
The show must, the show must go on
