Everybody Wants To Rule The World by Tears for Fears:


Welcome to your life
There's no turning back
Even while we sleep
We will find you
Acting on your best behaviour
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

Anyone else falling for this song????

i like that group.

great song, great band.

I love Tears for Fears.

I saw them live last summer. One of the best shows I've ever seen. That was the second song they played.

Yes, this is one of my favourite songs. I listen to it almost everyday!

I remember when that song first came out (in the Dark Ages). I could never make out the lyrics, though (except for the chorus).

The band apparently broke up in the 90's(?), but recently got back together and recorded a new album called "Everybody Loves a Happy Ending." (I've been obsessively listening to the 3rd track, "Call Me Mellow.")
