  • If you could blow up the world with the flick of a switch
    Would you do it?
    If you could make everybody poor just so you could be rich
    Would you do it?
    If you could watch everybody work while you just lay on your back
    Would you do it?
    If you could take all the love without giving any back
    Would you do it?
    And so we cannot know ourselves or what we'd really do...

    With all your power
    With all your power
    With all your power
    What would you do?

    If you could make your own money and then give it to everybody
    Would you do it?
    If you knew all the answers and could give it to the masses
    Would you do it?
    No No No No No No Are you crazy?
    It's a very dangerous thing to do exactly what you want...
    Because you cannot know yourself or what you'd really do...

    With all your power
    With all your power
    With all your power
    What would you do? Writer/s: JOSEPH CARTAGENA, LALO SCHIFRIN, MARC SHEMER, REMY SMITH

  • Rj from Wayland, Mii think that it's not even just for power in the wrong hands, but in *anyone's* hands. "because you cannot know yourself or what you'd really do" morals are great, but how do you know if you won't break them when you're not needed to uphold them?
