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 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 beside you So glad we've almost made it So sad we had to fade it Everybody wants to rule Everybody wants to rule Everybody wants to rule the world
