Delusions Of Grandeur

Pet Shop Boys

The cathedral's glittering on coronation day

Crowned heads and cardinals under military sway

I approach the altar slowly in a humble shroud

to receive the acclamation of the loyal crowd



Give me power over people in a palace

with a permanent guard

and the flags unfurled

Give devotion, dedication, celebration

not some cheap charade

and I'll rule the world

All of these delusions of grandeur

because they said 'We don't understand you'

and I want revenge



In audience I receive the media's pleas

They kiss my ring in interviews on bended knees

In victory I'm magnanimous and charming when

I speak exclusively at length to CNN



About power over people in a palace

with a permanent guard

and the flags unfurled

With devotion, dedication, celebration

not some cheap charade

I will rule the world

All of these delusions of grandeur

because they said 'We don't understand you'

and I want revenge



Ring the bells, tell everyone

Revolution can be fun
