The World is What You Make It

I knew this African they call Hannibal

Rock it, roll it, send it down the avenue

Went out to see the Roman Empire fall, uh-huh, uh-huh

Two thousand elephants in gold chain-mail

Take it, shake it, make it what you wanna be

Them Roman legionnaires, they hit the trail, uh-huh, uh-huh

The world is what you make it

The world is what you make it, baby

The world is what you make it

When Cleopatra ruled Egypt's land

Jump down, turn around, look at what the monkey did

She went to find herself a mighty man, uh-huh, uh-huh

In come Antonio from Italy

Haul it, ball it, drag it up the pyramid

He never knew how hot a girl could be, uh-huh, uh-huh

The world is what you make it

The world is what you make it, baby

The world is what you make it

Don't start to hit me with your "no can do"

Bluesin', losin', workin' up an attitude

Clean up them windows, let the sun shine through, uh-huh, uh-huh

There ain't no happy time without no pain

Heartbreak, new date, move on up the alleyway

Pick up the pieces, hit the road again, uh-huh, uh-huh

The world is what you make it

The world is what you make it, baby

The world is what you make it

The world is what you make it

The world is what you make it, baby

The world is what you make it

The world is what you make it
