What's the meaning of things, such diamonds and rings When it all gets so predictable, do you wanna know? What's the value of life when it's ended by a knife When it's all so unpredictable, do we even know? What makes the world go 'round? What's in a lifetime? Kings will come and kings will go He will stay the same, stay the same Nations rise and nations fall He will stay the same, stay the same What do I have to bring when I settle in my coffin Is there anything I'll need, anything at all? You have heard of a place where there will be no trace Of those valuable belongings, or did you even know? What makes the world go 'round? What's in a lifetime? Kings will come and kings will go He will stay the same, stay the same Nations rise and nations fall He will stay the same, stay the same What makes the world go 'round? What's in a lifetime? Kings will come and kings will go He will stay the same, stay the same Nations rise and nations fall He will stay the same, stay the same
