Delusions of Grandeur (2012 Remastered Version)

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 Revolution can be fun
