Red Hot Chili Peppers - Fortune Faded
Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Fortune Faded" is one of two new songs featured on their Greatest Hits album.
I only got into the Chili Peppers fairly recently, so I won't offend any of the true blue fans out there by trying to give an in-depth appraisal of this track (or any others)!
I will say that this track - like many of their others - has grown on me, the more I hear it. The video is pretty good too. Not "quite" as weird as some of their others.

Lyrics

They say in chess, you gotta kill the queen
And then you've made it

Oh I, do you?

A funny thing, the king who gets himself assassinated

Hey now, every time I lose
Altitude

You took a town by storm
The mess you made was nominated

Oh I, do you?

Now put away your welcome, soon you'll find you've overstayed it

Hey now, every time I lose
Altitude

So divine, hell of an elevator
All the while my fortune faded
Nevermind, the consequences of the crime
This time my fortune's faded

The medicated state of mind you find is overrated

Oh I, do you?

You saw it all come down and now it's time to imitate it

Hey now, every time I lose
Altitude

So divine, hell of an elevator
All the while my fortune faded
Nevermind the consequences of the crime
This time my fortune's faded

Come on God, do I seem bulletproof?
Ooooooooooh

So divine, hell of an elevator
All the while my fortune faded
Nevermind the consequences of the crime
This time my fortune's faded
[x 2]
