I see the way you look at me
You envy me (you envy me)
And it's killing you (eating you alive)
And you know it makes me smile
When i look in the mirror
Thinkin' how good it is to be king
And don't you wish you were me?
The king of all you see
Don't you wish you were me?
It ain't that easy
Don't think you'll ever be
Everything a man should be
Cause don't you wish you were me?
Keep dreamin', you'll never be me
Too soon, you'll be a memory
There for all to see (forever)
Just illusion (just illusion)
And sometimes it makes me laugh
When i see your reaction
Knowing that i've become mighty
And don't you wish you were me?
The king of all you see
Don't you wish you were me?
It ain't that easy
Don't think you'll ever be
Everything a man should be
Cause don't you wish you were me?
Keep dreamin', you'll never be me
Inside my mind there is a freak
That drives me on past all defeat
You'll never have, you can't instill
The power of my outer will
And don't you wish you were me?
The king of all you see
Don't you wish you were me?
It ain't that easy
Don't think you'll ever be
Everything a man should be
Cause don't you wish you were me?
Keep dreamin', you'll never be me
The king of all you see
It ain't that easy
Everything a man should be
Keep dreamin'
You'll never be me!!
