Welcome to your life
There's no turnin' back
Even while we sleep
we will find you
Actin' 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
Nothin' ever lasts forever
Everybody wants
to rule the world
There's a room where
the light won't find you
Holdin' hands while
the walls come tumblin' 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
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
Nothin' ever lasts forever
Everybody wants
to rule the world
