King of Nothing
(lyrics and music by James Seals, 1970)
From the albums UNBORN CHILD (1974), GREATEST HITS (1975) and
THE SEALS & CROFTS COLLECTION (1979).
When I was 17, I dreamed of being king. And having everything I wanted.
But that was long ago and my dreams did not unfold, so I'm still the King of Nothing.
When I was 17, I dreamed I gave a ring to a pretty queen and then I held her.
But that was slumber's fault for I have no love at all. And I'm still the King of Nothing.
If I could rule, I'd dance my cares away, find romance everyday.
I wouldn't have to listen to this poor fool say,
"I'm the King, I'm the King, I'm the King of Nothing."

Verse One:
When you're feeling kind of thirsty,
Do you think about us, baby.
When you're feeling kind of hungry,
Tell me baby, do you think about us, yeah.
If you say you want my love,
When you think you need some love,
Do you think about us, do you think about us, do you think about us?
And any time that you want me baby,
All the things that drive me crazy,
Do you think about us, yeah.
