King Nothing
(Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett)


Wish I may
Wish I might have this I wish tonight
Are you satisfied?
Dig for gold, dig for fame
You dig to make your name
Are you pacified?

        All the wants you waste
        All the things you've chased

        Then it all crashes down
        And you break your crown
        And you point your finger but there's no one around
        Just want one thing
        Just to play the King
        But the castle's crumbled and you're left with just a name

        Where's your crown, King Nothing?
        Where's your crown?

Hot and cold
Bought and sold
A heart as hard as gold
Yeah, are you satisfied?
Wish I might, wish I may
You wish your life away
Are you pacified?

        All the wants you waste
        All the things you've chased

        Then it all crashes down
        And you break your crown
        And you point your finger but there's no one around
        Just want one thing
        Just to play the King
        But the castle's crumbled and you're left with just a name

        Where's your crown, King Nothing?
        You're nothing
        Come on, where's your crown?

Huh!

I wish I may
I wish I might have this wish, I wish tonight
I want that star, I want it now
I want it all and I don't care how

Careful what you wish
Careful what you say
Careful what you wish, you may regret it
Careful what you wish, you just might get it

        Then it all crashes down
        And you break your crown
        And you point your finger but there's no one around
        Just want one thing
        Just to play the King
        But the castle's crumbled and you're left with just a name

        Where's your crown, King Nothing?
        Nothing

No, you're just nothing
Where's your crown, King Nothing?
No, you're just nothing
Absolutely nothing
Off to never-never land
