Well I been breaking it down for you baby,
Been running around, I can't see no love for me,
Somebody rescue me

I'm the king of the town Mr crazy,
Creating a sound, but still no love for me,
Somebody rescue me,
Just rescue me,
Rescue me,
Rescue me

Well I been breaking it down for you baby,
Been running around, I can't see no love for me,
Somebody rescue me

I'm the king of the town Mr crazy,
Creating a sound, but still no love for me,
Somebody rescue me,
Just rescue me,
Rescue me,
Rescue me

S.K.E.PTA,
Before I start I just wanna say,
Boy Better Know all day,
I got bumble bee's tryin' to figure out how I got this buzz,
All I want is a kiss and a hug but somebody told specsavers I still can't see no love,

Days, month, years, blood, sweat, tears,
I walk the street of London facing my fears,
And everydays like truth or dare,
So spin that bottle,
'Cause if it lands on me, I'mma stay true to my word,
I don't want anymore respect than I deserve

Well I been breaking it down for you baby,
Been running around I can't see no love for me,
Somebody rescue me

I'm the king of the town Mr crazy
Creating the sound, there's still no love for me,
Somebody rescue me,
Just rescue me,
Rescue me,
Rescue me

Well I been breaking it down for you baby,
Been running around I can't see no love for me,
Somebody rescue me

I'm the king of the town Mr crazy
Creating the sound, there's still no love for me,
Somebody rescue me,
Just rescue me,
Rescue me,
Rescue me
