Well, I been making the first steps to take control

And I will tell you this once, so make a note

All the days of my younger years seem so strange to me now

They're lost souvenirs

Welcome in committee

The shame and all the pity of whom I was so long ago

It's a ghost

Someone I don't know

After the election, a different direction

Another government in my head

A new ghost

The old king is dead

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Well, I was caught in the doldrums, lived under a stone

Disembodied spirit, now I'm flesh and bone

And all the thoughts that I used to feel seem so strange to me now

Were they ever real?

Welcome in committee

The shame and all the pity of whom I was so long ago

It's a ghost

Someone I don't know

After the election, a different direction

Another government in my head

A new ghost

The old king is dead

Yeah

Yeah

Welcome in committee

The shame and all the pity of whom I was so long ago

It's a ghost

Someone I don't know

After the election, a different direction

Another government in my head

A new ghost

The old king is dead

Welcome in committee

The shame and all the pity of whom I was so long ago

It's a ghost

Someone I don't know

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah
