Everybody Wants to Rule the World lyrics

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

Ev'rybody wants to rule the world

It's my own desire, 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

Ev'rybody 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, 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]
