Lyrics:
He was a leader of a small gang
Commiting crimes each day
But time has changed where he was proud
Its a far away
He took living easy, his bad reputation
Oh it was known all around
But he didnt care no, he made dirty money
Now he is down and out
Thought he knew the tricks of life
Prowling in the dark
Now hes left by all his friends
cause he lived apart, of them
He was a leader, malicious and violent
His fame is covered with blood
Now hes just a number, he lost all his power
The king has lost his face
Down down down, though the king lost his crown
Caught and sentenced, he was guilty
Down down down, though the king lost his crown
Its too late- far too high
Late far too high

Peter Baltes, Accept's bassist/backing vocalist/songwriter is doing the vocals on this song. He used to sing on a couple of songs on the early Accept albums.

@SilverTounge85 His voice is too damned good not to hear more of it. I often wondered why they didn't just make him lead singer, but the music might have taken a different direction. Whatever the case, I'm just sooo grateful that they have given us so much incredibly awesome music.

Accept is a heavy metal band, I didn't bother to change the genre for a few earlier songs. :)
