Welcome to your life
There's no turning back
Even while we sleep

We will find you

Acting on your best behavior

Turn your back on Mother Nature
Everybody wants to rule the world


It's my own design
It's my own remorse
Help me to decide

Help me make the

Most of freedom and of pleasure

Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world


There's a room where the light won't find you
Holding hands while
The walls come tumbling down

When they do, I'll be right behind you

So glad we've almost made it

So sad they had to fade it
Everybody wants to rule the world


I can't stand this indecision
Married with a lack of vision
Everybody wants to rule the world


Say that you'll never, never, never, never need it
One headline, why believe it?

Everybody wants to rule the world

All for freedom and for pleasure

Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world
