作曲：Prince And The Revolution

Once upon a time

in the land of sinaplenty

There lived a king

who didn't deserve 2 be

He knew not where he came from

Nor where he was going

He never once said

thank u never please

Now this king he had a

subject named electra

Who loved him with

a passion uncontested

4 Him each day she had a smile

But it didn't matter

The king was looking 4 the ladder

Everybody's looking 4 the ladder

Everybody wants salvation of the soul

The steps u take are no easy road

But the reward is great

4 Those who want 2 go

A feeling of self worth

everybody's looking

Will caress u for the answers

The size of the whole wide

world will decrease

how the story started

And how it will end

The love of god's creation will undress u

And time spent alone

my friend will cease

Everybody's looking 4 the answers

How the story started

and how it will end

What's the use in half

a story half a dream

U have 2 climb all of the steps in

between yeah we ride

Everybody's looking 4 the ladder

Everybody wants salvation of the soul

The steps u take are no easy road

the steps you take are no easy road

It's not that easy

But the reward is great

4 Those who want 2 go I do

Everybody everybody's looking

For the answers

Everybody wants to know how the story

how the story started

what's the use in half a story

Half a dream

U u gotta climb u gotta

climb u have 2 climb all

All of the steps in between

Everybody

Everybody's looking 4 that ladder

Everybody wants salvation of the soul

Salvation

The steps u take are no easy road

That's for sure

But the reward is great

reward is great

Those who want 2 go

those who want 2 go

Everybody everybody wants

everybody's looking 4 the answers

Anyone who know how the story

how the story started

Started how it will end

Will it be lonely in the world

what's the use in half a story

half of a dream
