Lyric

As the sun sets on sunset

It reflects against a can wet with condensation

His baby left, she's going back to school again

And learning 50 ways to kill the conversation

'Cause if you can't be good (if you can't be good)

If you can't be good (if you can't be good)

If you can't be good, you drink in the name of art

And as the sun sets on sunset again

The stars come out, so it don't get dark

On the king of Echo Park

The king of Echo Park

Now, she's playing pool at the Little Joy

Just a little drunk, she sees her little boy

And as they smoked outside, she wondered how long she'd have to wait

'Til it wouldn't be too soon to take him back to her place

'Cause if you can't go home (if you can't go home)

If you can't go home (if you can't go home)

With the one you love, you go home with someone

And it's never too soon, and it's never too late

'Cause when you're royalty, babe, you never have to work

And he's the king of Echo Park

The king of Echo Park

And now, he's walking home in the very same clothes

As the night before, except you'd never know

And all the girls he's bagged, they just can't stay mad

They just wave their hands at no ordinary jerk

But who's afraid of a little cliché?

As he sipped ice tea in the palm tree shade

And as he looked around, everything was right

But as he closed his eyes, he dreamt he was in New York

The king of Echo Park

The king of Echo Park

- It's already the end -
