Kings of the World

Don Black, Gérard Presgurvic

[Verse 1: Romeo]
Kings of the world, running our lives
Powerful husbands with ambitious wives
Ever-so-smug 'cause they make all the rules
They are not kings, just a bunch of old fools

[Verse 2: Benvolio]
Kings of the world, planning ahead
They haven't noticed they're already dead
They eat the fat and they toss us the bones
Transparent kings sitting on paper thrones

[Refrain: Chorus]
We know how to live
We squeeze the juice from every moment
We make love day after day, night after night
We sing we dance
It makes no sense in being careful
Not when time flies like an arrow
We take every risk that's out there
We're prepared to take that chance
We are the…

[Verse 3: Mercutio]
Kings of the world, free as the wind
Looking for sins that we haven't yet sinned
They think they're smart, but they're really quite dumb
You miss the tune when you're banging your drum

[Verse 4: Benvolio & Romeo]
Kings of the world, they're just a joke (They're just a joke)
They are not kings, they're just misguided folk (Misguided folk)
Boring as hell and as dull as can be (Dull as can be)
One thing's for sure: they would love to be me!

[Refrain: Chorus & Romeo]
We know how to live
We squeeze the juice from every moment
We make love day after day, night after night
We sing, we dance (We sing, we dance)
It makes no sense in being careful
Not when time flies like an arrow
We take every risk that's out there
We're prepared to take that chance
We are the (We'll take that chance!)

[Instrumental]

[Refrain: Chorus, Romeo, Benvolio & Mercutio]
We know how to live
We squeeze the juice from every moment (Kings of the world)
We make love day after day, night after night
We sing, we dance (We sing, we dance)
It makes no sense in being careful
Not when time flies like an arrow
We take every risk that's out there (Free as the wind)
We're prepared to take that chance (We'll take that chance!)
We'll take any chance!

[?]

[Romeo, Benvolio & Mercutio]
We'll take the chance!
