Back in the years before blood lost all its flavour You slipped and fell but fell into my favour But I Chose the land between (?) 'Cos I heard they were looking for a saviour So I focussed my attentions on the wars in the west Drew up a battle plan and put my armies to the test Came walking through the stands And you were wearing that dress Lost my answers to the boys in the mess Dropped to my knees and began to confess... I control the world You controlled my heart And life was easier than watching evil empires fall apart [Oh yes it was] You saw that only my blood lust could tear us apart So you raided my artillery for a tranquiliser dart You steadied; took your aim and shot me straight in the heart Let your tender reign over me, start I 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 'cos I sailed the, sailed the seven seas Accumulating so many enemies They would fall for me And I would fall to you And your 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 mother in the dark Your sideward beam preserved in status and in art And life was easier than watching evil empires fall apart.
