The World Is What You Make It

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
The world is what you make it
The world is what you make it, baby
The world is what you make it

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
The world is what you make it
The world is what you make it, baby
The world is what you make it

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus]
The world is what you make it
The world is what you make it, baby
The world is what you make it

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
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
