I've had the winds of change push me awake
Or else I wouldn't go
I'd hide forever in the seashells
Safe and sound from this mad world
But I finally get to see it's time
To take a roller coaster ride
And shake up all I think I know
My empire, my empire
My empire is falling
My empire, my empire
My empire is falling
Today I heard the news from Spain
I don't know where it's gonna end
But here I am to entertain you,
Wine and dine while you still can
I'm here to laugh at all your jokes
To be amused by what you say until the stars grow cold
No, I don't think you're bad at all
But really, can't you hear the call?
Our empires, our empires
Our empires are falling
Our empires, our empires
Our empires are falling
Is there time
To see the truth and still take sides
To bury every proof we find
That we're insane, that we're all blind?
Is it still time
To hurry home and stay inside?
Will there be homes to stay inside?
Is it still time
To hurry home and stay inside?
Will there be homes to stay inside?
Our empires, our empires
Our empires have fallen
Our empires, our empires
Our empires have fallen
Our empires, our empires
Our empires have fallen
All empires, all empires
