Reaching for my crossbow
I patiently take aim
I've got you in the crosshair
Never gonna hurt me or anybody else again
Yes you rule the world for now
You do
Yes you rule the world for now
Yes you rule the world
You and all your money
Yes you rule the world for now
I'm starting with you
And then I'll take the room to pieces
To pieces I'm starting with you
Then I'll take the room to pieces
To pieces
To pieces
Prowling through the city
I need someone to blame
Tomorrow's headline news
You'll all know my name
Yes you rule the world for now
You do
Yes you rule the world for now
Yes you rule the world
You and all your money
Yes you rule the world for now
I'm starting with you
And then I'll take the room to pieces
To pieces
I'm starting with you
Then I'll take the room to pieces
To pieces
I'll put away my crossbow
So empty all your guns
Maybe there's another way
To get things done
Yes they rule the world for now
They do
Yes they rule the world for now
But we can take the air
They can keep their money
Yes we rule the world for now
If we choose to
I'm starting with you
And then we'll find a place where peace is
I'm starting with you
And then I'll build a place
Where peace is
Where peace is
I'll find a place where peace is
