Great Expectations (Sullivan, Morrow) 1982 Produce
- When I was young I dreamed and dreamed - About all the things that I was going to be - A brave explorer holding court - Or a really famous astronaut - Or captain of the England team - They said 'Son, it could all be yours - You just work hard and pay your dues - Don't be content with what you've got - There's always more that you can want - Everybody's on the make - That's what made this country great'
Ch: - So all I wanted in the end - Was world domination and a whole lot of money to spend - A little place to call my home - Like a planet that was all my own - Well that's not much to ask, it's really not - It's not much to ask, just the same as everybody else
- So welcome to the free for all - The smash and grab, the freeloaders ball - Where everything is here for us - If we scream, shout, make a fuss - There's nothing that you can't afford - With Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com a poisoned tongue and a sharpened sword - Spoilt children in a row - No-one dares to tell them 'No'
Ch: - So all I wanted in the end - Was world domination and a whole lot of money to spend - Everything I touch, everything I see - Fame and fortune, immortality - Well that's not much to ask, it's really not - It's not much to ask, just the same as everybody else
- So in every heart there's a broken dream - A shattered cause, a might have been - In every eye there's a secret tear - In every heart there's a secret fear - That this is it, done, complete - Resign yourself to your defeat - the bitterness behind the show - That's where spoilt children go
