Watching Evil Empires Fall Apart

Back in the years before blood lost all its flavor

You slipped and fell but you fell into my favor

But i chose the land between dam and bathsheba

Because i heard they were looking for a savior

So i focused my attentions on the wars in the west

Drew up a battle plan and put my armies to the test

You came walking through the sands and you were wearing that dress

Lost my interest in the boys and the mess

Dropped to my knees and began to confess

I control the world

You control my heart

And life was easier

Than watching evil empires fall apart

Oh yes it was

You saw that only my bloodlust could ever tear us apart

So you raided my artillery for a tranquilizer dart

You steady took your aim and shot me straight in the heart

Let your tender reign over me start

I'd spend the next twenty years with my head between your knees

All the while making sure you heard my cautionary pleas

There's a price on my head at which nobody would sneeze

'cause i've sailed and sailed the seven seas

Accumulating so many enemies

They would fall to me

And i would fall to you

And you're the closest thing i'll ever have to waterloo

When they write my history

Will they include all your conquests of me?

I control the world

You controlled my heart

Your light would always guide my armada in the dark

Your sight will be preserved in statues and in art

And life was easier than watching evil empires fall apart
