So you say you want a revolution,  
Well, you know, we all want to rule the world.

I built a little empire out of some crazy garbage  
Called the blood of the exploited working class  
But they’ve overcome their shyness  
Now they’re calling me Your Highness  
And a world screams, “Kiss me, Son of God”

Johnny used to work after school at the cinema show  
Gotta hustle if he wants an education  
Yeah he’s got a long way to go  
Now he’s out on the streets all day  
Selling crack to the people who pay  
Got an AK-47 for his best friend  
Business the American Way

Eastside meets Westside downtown  
No time, the walls fall down

Can’t you feel it coming? EMPIRE!  
Can’t you hear it calling?

IF I should die, think only this of me;   
That there’s some corner of a foreign field   
That is for ever England. There shall be   
In that rich earth a richer dust concealed;   
A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware,   
Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam,   
A body of England’s breathing English air,   
Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home.

And did those feet in ancient time,  
Walk upon England’s mountains green?  
And was the holy lamb of God  
On England’s pleasant pastures seen?

And did the Countenance Divine,  
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?  
And was Jerusalem builded here  
Among these dark Satanic Mills?

I wish my father was here  
People are stumbling and blind  
I can climb mountains to fall down again  
I can fork any rivers without feeling pain  
I cut off my nose to spite my face  
Look at all pests around the place  
Everyone’s laughign they think it’s disguise  
But haven’t you seen all the lines round my eyes?

Seven views of Jerusalem  
Seven views of Jerusalem  
Seven views of Jerusalem  
Seven views of Jerusalem

Pray and violate, abuse your trust  
False gods must purge their lust  
A family that lies to seal your fate  
To take the weight of their self-hate

Free love - Free love  
Bring love to all my sisters  
Breathe out - Blind House  
You don’t need to know their secrets  
Believe me

Breathe out…Blind House  
Free love…feel loved

</div>

Hidden, are the meanings of the words  
Afraid to say just how we feel  
Thoughts, if our thoughts could be heard  
So many dreams could become real, could become real

But we hide, suffering in silence  
And here we are all alone  
Separated by a distance that we find  
At tables of our own  
At tables of our own

Lost, we are lost here together  
Clinging, yet holding back  
Walls, they separate our feelings  
Extreme emotions leak, but never last, never last

Still we hide, lost inside  
And no one dares to break the glass  
Fragile emotions that we hide  
Leave impressions that will last  
Leave impressions that will last

I loved you once in silence  
And mis’ry was all I knew.  
Trying so to keep my love from showing,  
All the while not knowing you loved me too.  
Yes, loved me in lonesome silence;  
Your heart filled with dark despair.  
Thinking love would flame in you forever,  
And I’d never, never know the flame was there.  
Then one day we cast away our secret longing;  
The raging tide we held inside would hold no more.  
The silence at last was broken!  
We flung wide our prison door.  
Ev’ry joyous word of love was spoken.

Arise, my love, arise, my love  
Apollo’s lighting the skies, my love  
The meadows shine with columbine  
And daffodils blossom away  
Hear Venus call to one and all  
And taste delight while you may  
The world is bright and all is right  
And life is merry and gay

Goddess on a mountaintop  
Burning like a silver flame  
The goddess of beauty and love  
And Venus was her name

She’s Venus in blue jeans  
Mona Lisa with a pony tail  
She’s a walking talking work of art  
She’s the girl who stole my heart

My Venus in blue jeans  
Is the Cinderella I adore  
She’s my very special angel too  
A fairy tale come true

</div>

And now we’ve stood the test of time, we survived  
I asked for hope and a chance  
You gave the key to your heart  
You used to say that I’m not sincere  
I’m gonna prove that you’re wrong  
I’m never gonna leave your arms  
Should’ve realized before, your love’s worth waiting for

Don’t you know that it’s our love that’s burning  
Burning like a flame  
And you know that it’s out love that’s never  
Never gonna change  
'Cause every time I touch you  
You just make me go insane  
Don’t you know that it’s our love that’s burning  
Our love, burning like a flame

Ooh, ooh, ooh,  
I feel my temperature rising  
Help me, I’m flaming  
I must be a hundred and nine  
Burning, burning, burning  
And nothing can cool me  
I just might turn into smoke  
But I feel fine

Cause your kisses lift me higher  
Like a sweet song of a choir  
And you light my morning sky  
With burning love

It’s coming closer  
The flames are reaching my body  
Please won’t you help me  
I feel like I’m slipping away  
It’s hard to breath  
And my chest is a-heaving

Lord Almighty,  
I’m burning a hole where I lay  
Cause your kisses lift me higher  
Like the sweet song of a choir  
You light my morning sky  
With burning love  
With burning love  
Ah, ah, burning love  
I’m just a hunk, a hunk of burning love  
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love  
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love  
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love  
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love  
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love

</div>

So grab your rose and ring side seat  
We’re back home at Conry’s bar  
The blond girl with her tattoo  
Reds and wine, cokes of course

Oh my Suzy, my Suzy  
Why did we ever start?  
It’s morning now, you’d never know  
The gin, the gin, glows in the dark, glows in the dark

And underneath the black light  
Underneath it all  
Four and forty redheads meet  
Come to doom 'til the dawn

With threats of gas and rose motif  
Their lips apart like a swollen rose  
Their tongues extend, and then retract  
A redcap, a redcap, before the kiss, before the kiss

Well, it’s been getting so hard  
Livin’ with the things you do to me  
My dreams are getting so strange  
I’d like to tell you everything I see  
I see a man at the back as a matter of fact  
His eyes are red as the sun  
And a girl in the corner let no one ignore her  
'Cause she thinks she’s the passionate one

Oh, yeah, it was like lightning, everybody was frightening  
And the music was soothing, and they all started grooving  
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

And the man at the back said everyone attack  
And it turned into a ballroom blitz  
And the girl in the corner said boy, I wanna warn ya  
It’ll turn into a ballroom blitz

Well I’m upper upper class high society  
God’s gift to ballroom notoriety  
And I always fill my ballroom, the event is never small  
The social pages say I’ve got the biggest balls of all

I’ve got big balls, I’ve got big balls  
They’re such big balls, and they’re dirty big balls  
And he’s got big balls  
And she’s got big balls  
But WE’VE GOT THE BIGGEST BALLS OF THEM ALL!

And my balls are always bouncing, my ballroom always full  
And everybody COMES and COMES again  
If your name is on the guest list  
No one can take you higher  
Everybody says I’ve got great balls of fire

I’ve got big balls, oh I’ve got big balls  
And they’re such big balls, dirty big balls  
And he’s got big balls  
And she’s got big balls  
But WE’VE GOT THE BIGGEST BALLS OF THEM ALL!

Some balls are held for charity, and some for fancy dress  
But when they’re held for _pleasure_, they’re the balls that I like best  
My balls are always bouncing to the left and to the right  
It’s my belief that my big balls should be held every night

We’ve got big balls, we’ve got big balls  
We’ve got big balls, dirty big balls  
He’s got big balls  
She’s got big balls  
But WE’VE GOT THE BIGGEST BALLS OF THEM ALL!

You shake my nerves and you rattle my brain  
Too much love drives a man insane  
You broke my will, oh what a thrill  
Goodness gracious great balls of fire

I learned to love all of Hollywood money  
You came along and you moved me honey  
I changed my mind, looking fine  
Goodness gracious great balls of fire

You kissed me baby, woo, it feels good  
Hold me baby, learn to let me love you like a lover should  
You’re fine, so kind  
I’m a nervous world that your mine mine mine mine

I cut my nails and I twiddle my thumbs  
I’m really nervous but it sure is fun  
Come on baby, you drive me crazy  
Goodness gracious great balls of fire

Well kiss me baby, woo-oooooo, it feels good  
Hold me baby  
I want to love you like a lover should  
You’re fine, so kind  
I got this world that your mine mine mine mine

I cut my nails and I twiddle my thumbs  
I’m real nervous 'cause it sure is fun  
Come on baby, you drive me crazy  
Goodness gracious great balls of fire

My balls are so awesome. Don’t get me started.  
They’re so damn big. How big are they?  
They’re so big. It’s really obnoxious.  
It’s like two ewoks chillin’ in my boxers.  
They’re so big. I can’t hold 'em back.  
Even Cartman’s like, man those are fat.  
They’re so big. They’re run over your feet.  
That’s why when they back up you hear a beep beep.

And how can I be subtle,  
When my balls chase Indiana Jones through a tunnel?  
And everyone at Disney World keeps telling me  
That Epcot Center looks at 'em with jealousy.  
In fact, when you see 'em on the street they’ll  
Fight Godzilla to the death in the sequel.
