Empire of one

Jawbox
Empire of one, empire of one
Misfortunate son, a kiss to the don
Auto-hypnotic lecture short-circuit, holding court in a rented room
Condition chronic, suspicions static
Mouth like a senator, hung like a cheap suit
Sings like a salesman, drunk on the audience

Empire of one, empire of one
Respect to the don, misfortunate son
Holding court, sucks up to emcee
In a rented room, the one-ring circus
Puts a theory to, condition chronic
The test on you, mouth like a senator
One lucky audience, sold on the salesmen

Lackluster hero
Go back to zero

Empire of one, empire of one
The subjects are gone, misfortunate son
Meager returns, seated and burns
On a king's star-time charm, on a brown tar time-bomb
Doffs the crown, bitter tonic
To stagger home, tight like a tourniquet
Drunk on the obvious, sings like a salesman

Empire of one, empire of one
Misfortunate son, the suspects are gone
Auto-hypnotic lecture short-circuit, auto-hypnotic lecture short-circuit
Condition chronic, dons the crown
Tight like a tourniquet, to swagger alone
Sings like a salesman, drunk on the obvious

Lackluster hero
Go back to zero

Trying to talk to, past mouth and through you
Past mouth and through you, talk through to you
Trying to talk to, past mouth and through you
Past mouth and through you, talk through to you

Lackluster hero
Go back to zero
