Everybody wants to rule the world

After Adam's version of Mad World, it brought back nostalgia to my school days as my early days I'm heavily influenced by Brits. Perhaps, it got to be SG being a Commonwealth country. It was the best time of my time especially you know that you would be sheltered by your parents and do almost anything without having to carry the heavy responsibility of an adult.

This is also another song entitled Everybody wants to rule the world among other hits such as Woman in Chain and Shout that were done by Tears for Fears.

It's about everybody wanting power, about warfare and the misery it causes. This is so true in our current world.

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

PS : Perhaps, the only 2 things that unite all nations are music and football.
