Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
I looked into her eyes and I swore I've never written a cliche before And I'll probably never do so She was beautiful though I think it's time for me and you to take over the world I think it's time for me and you to take over the world I'm only a paperboy from the North West But I can scrub up well in my Sunday best How could I ever do for you? Because I'm true and I'm real and this is how I feel I think it's time for me and you to take over the world I think it's time for me and you to take over the world A glossy magazine on the coffee table And you've held court with half of the culprits in there who seem unstable But you don't look at them like you do at me Those eyes are only mine, what a wonderful time When your eyes are mine, and mine are yours I turn over in bed and you're not there Nowhere to be seen All I can do is flip the Mac and gently touch the screen I think it's time for me and you to take over the world I think it's time for me and you to take over the world Take over the world Take over the world
