Bareilles, Sara - King Of Anything Lyrics






Keep drinkin' coffee
Stare me down across the table
While I look outside

So many things I'd say if only I were able
But I just keep quiet
And count the cars that pass by

You've got opinions, man
We're all entitled to 'em
But I never asked

So let me thank you for your time
And try not to waste any more of mine
Get out of here fast

I hate to break it to you, babe
But I'm not drowning
There's no one here to save

Who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So you dare tell me who to be
Who died and made you king of anything?

You sound so innocent
All full of good intent
You swear you know best

But you expect me to
Jump up on board with you
And ride off into your delusional sunset

I'm not the one who's lost
With no direction oh
But you'll never see

You're so busy makin' maps
With my name on them in all caps
You've got the talkin' down
Just not the listening

And who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So you dare tell me who to be
Who died and made you king of anything?

All my life
I've tried
To make everybody happy while I
Just hurt
And hide
Waitin' for someone to tell me it's my turn
To decide

Who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So you dare tell me who to be
Who died and made you king of anything?

Who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So you dare tell me who to be
Who died and made you king of anything?

Let me hold your crown, babe

    In case anyone wants random Korean translation:


    Oh (oh oh oh)
    Oh (oh oh oh)
    Oh (oh oh oh)
    Oh (oh oh oh)

    Keep drinkin’ coffee stare me down across the table
    커피를 계속 마시면서 건너편에서는 나를 노려봐
    While I look outside
    내가 밖을 쳐다보고 있는 동안

    So many things I’d say if only I were able
    말하고 싶은게 너무나도 많아요, 내가 할수만 있다면 말이야
    But I just keep quiet and count the cars that pass by
    하지만 그냥 조용히 있으면서 지나가는 차를 세고있어

    You’ve got opinions, man
    너는 자신만의 의견을 가지고 있어
    We’re all entitled to ‘em, but I never asked
    우리 모두가 의견을 받을 자격이 있긴 하지, 하지만 난 물어본적이 없어

    So let me thank you for your time and try not to waste any more of mine
    그러니 네가 시간을 내준 것은 감사하지만, 더이상 내 시간을 낭비하고 싶지 않아
    Get out of here fast
    그리고 나는 여기서 빨리 나가고 싶어

    I hate to break it to you babe but I’m not drowning
    너에게 이런말 해서 미안하지만 솔직히 말하면 나는 물에 빠져 있지 않아
    There’s no one here to save
    여기에 네가 구해줘야 할 사람은 없네

    Who cares if you disagree
    네가 동의하지 않으면 누가 신경써?
    You are not me
    너는 내가 아니야
    Who made you king of anything?
    누가 너를 왕으로 만들었지?
    So you dare tell me who to be
    네가 감히 나에게 이래라 저래라 말할 수 있는 입장이야?
    Who died and made you king of anything
    누가 죽고 너를 왕으로 만든거였지?

    Oh (oh oh oh)
    Oh (oh oh oh)
    Oh (oh oh oh)
    Oh (oh oh oh)

    You sound so innocent, all full of good intent
    너는 너무 순수하고 좋은 의도만으로 가득찬 소리를 하지
    You swear you know best
    네가 가장 잘 안다고 맹세해

    But you expect me to jump up on board with you
    하지만 너는 나에게 너의 편에 서기를 기대해
    And ride off into your delusional sunset
    그리고 너의 망상같은 노을속으로 들어가길 바라지

    I’m not the one who’s lost with no direction oh
    방향도 없이 길을 잃은 사람은 내가 아니야
    But you’ll never see
    하지만 너는 절대 그걸 알리가 없지

    You’re so busy makin’ maps with my name on them in all caps
    너는 내 이름을 대문자로 일일이 지도에 박아 넣느라 너무 바쁘기 때문이지
    You got the talkin’ down just no the listening
    너는 말하는건 잘 하지만, 듣는건 잘 못하네

    Who cares if you disagree
    네가 동의하지 않으면 누가 신경써?
    You are not me
    너는 내가 아니야
    Who made you king of anything?
    누가 너를 왕으로 만들었지?
    So you dare tell me who to be
    네가 감히 나에게 이래라 저래라 말할 수 있는 입장이야?
    Who died and made you king of anything
    누가 죽고 너를 왕으로 만든거였지?

    All my life I’ve tried to make everybody happy
    내 모든 삶동안 나는 모두를 행복하게 만들려고 노력하며 살아왔어
    while I just hurt and hide
    나는 상처받고 숨어 있는 동안
    Waitin’ for someone to tell me it’s my turn to decide
    누군가가 내게 이제는 내가 결정할 차례라고 말해주길 기다리면서

    Oh (oh oh oh)
    Oh (oh oh oh)
    Oh (oh oh oh)
    Oh (oh oh oh)

    Who cares if you disagree
    네가 동의하지 않으면 누가 신경써?
    You are not me
    너는 내가 아니야
    Who made you king of anything?
    누가 너를 왕으로 만들었지?
    So you dare tell me who to be
    네가 감히 나에게 이래라 저래라 말할 수 있는 입장이야?
    Who died and made you king of anything
    누가 죽고 너를 왕으로 만든거였지?

    Who cares if you disagree
    네가 동의하지 않으면 누가 신경써?
    You are not me

    Who died and made you king of anything
    누가 죽고 너를 왕으로 만든거였지?
