Everybody wants to rule the world

Everybody wants to rule the world
Welcome to your life
there's no turning back
even while we sleep
we will find you
acting out your best behavior
turn your back on mother nature
everybody wants to rule the world.
It's my own desire
it's my own reward
help me to decide
help me make the most of freedom
and our 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 take 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'l 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.
