Annotationen

Song, in dem eine AABA-Struktur mit einer Verse-Chorus-Form spielt. Der Chorus wir hier als Refrain (qua wiederkehrende Struktur in einem Verse-Chorus-Muster – [Ref]) wiedergegeben. Diese Lösung ist allerdings nicht ganz zufrieden stellend.Eine strukturelle Hybride wie diese würde man eigentlich in den 1960er Jahren und nicht in den 1980er Jahren erwarten.

Lyrics

[Intro] [A] Welcome to your life; there's no turning back Even while we sleep we will find you [Ref] acting on your best behavior Turn your back on mother nature Ev'rybody wants to rule the world [A] It's my own desire, it's my own remorse Help me to decide. Help me make the [Ref] most of freedom and of pleasure Nothing ever lasts forever Everybody wants to rule the world [B] 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 [Ref] So glad we've almost made it So sad they had to fade it Ev'rybody wants to rule the world [Instrumental] [Ref] I can't stand this indecision Married with a lack of vision Everybody wants to rule the world [Ref] Say that you'll never, never, never, need it One headline, why believe it? Everybody wants to rule the world [Ref] All for freedom and for pleasure Nothing ever lasts forever Everybody wants to rule the world
