Lyrics of Third Swan by King Creosote,Jon Hopkins
verse
I've grown complacent i cannot think
I am the third swan, the non-white one,
The not quite sun on the water of Leith
Ducking i am diving for political belief
I am dragging up scum
I am the waste from the slums i am
verse
You can have your cake
But someone else will scoff
I cannot live to ninety five
I want to die whilst i am alive
chorus
I rode shotgun with the roof down
Amusement arcade dance
How the Vauxhall bounced
The Kinkell Braes i, i swore took aim, aye,
I am a king of the world
A king of the world shot down
verse
You hit the new year sprinting gold
No late december weight upon your shoulders
Now you're shot of me
My balance the envy of a new born foal
My sea legs knocking in the shallows
Now you're shot of me
chorus
I rode shotgun with the roof down
Amusement arcade dance
How the Vauxhall bounced
The Kinkell Braes i, i swore took aim, aye,
I am a king of the world
A king of the world shot down
I rode shotgun with the roof down
Amusement arcade dance
I am a king of the world shot down
Writer(s): Jon Hopkins, Kenny Anderson
