Ooooooohhhh... (trouble, trouble, trouble)
I see it all, I see it now (ooooooohhhh...) trouble, trouble
There was a time
I raise my flags, don my clothes, never asking why
We rule the world
I tried carrying the weight of the world, no one could deny
Those days are gone
Waking up to ash and dust, we're ashes on the ground
I still hear the songs
Well life will pass me by if I don't open up my eyes, well that's fine by me
So wake me up when it's all over (don't you worry, don't you worry child)
When I'm wiser and I'm older (see Heaven's got a prayer for you)
All this time I was finding myself and I
didn't know I was lost
And we'll never be royals (royals)
And we can't stop... trouble, trouble
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age
Let me be your ruler (ruler)
And we won't stop... guess I shouldn't start a war
You think I'm crazy, yeah you think I'm crazy
Let me live that fantasy
Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
They tell me I'm too young to understand
Mmm... too young, too dumb to realize
Round and around and around and around we go
It's a revolution, I suppose
Tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know
Woah
And we'll never be royals (royals)
And we can't stop... trouble, trouble
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age
Let me be your ruler (ruler)
And we won't stop... guess I shouldn't start a war
You think I'm crazy, yeah you think I'm crazy
Let me live that fantasy
Baby you a song, you make me wanna roll my windows down, and cruise
Breathing in the chemicals (ooooooooooohhhh...)
My friends and I, we've cracked the code (just crack the code)
In a torn up town, (in a torn up town), we're fine with this
I figured it out, they watching us
You were right, no more pretending, all eyes on us
And we don't mind all the watchin'
It's our party, we can do what we want to, let's go
It's our song, sing this song and it goes like
Ooooooohhhh... (and we can't stop... trouble, trouble)
Ooooooohhhh... (this is my kingdom, this is my party, this is my kingdom)
This is our house, this is our rules
Let me be your ruler (ruler)
And we won't stop... guess I shouldn't start a war
You think I'm crazy, yeah you think I'm crazy
Let me live that fantasy
Woooooh oh (oooooooooooohhh)
Woooooh oh (oooooooooooohhh)
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Woooooh oh (oooooooooooohhh)
Woooooh oh (oooooooooooohhh) guess I shouldn't start a war
You think I'm crazy, yeah you think I'm crazy
Let me live that fantasy
(piano solo)
Let me show you a few things (don't you worry, don't you worry child)
Show you a few things (oooohhh... yeah)
Didn't know I was lost
I didn't know I was lost
Let me show you a few things (and we can't stop)
Show you a few things (oooohhh...) (trouble, trouble) (yeah)
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Aaaaaaaahhh... (only got twenty dollars in my pocket, yeah)
Aaaaaaaahhh... (twenty dollars in my pocket) aaah (yeah)
Aaaaahhh... no more counting dollars, guess I shouldn't start a war
You think I'm crazy, yeah you think I'm crazy
Let me live that fantasy
