"International" lyrics

"International"

You wanna talk about cocky
It's like Mohammed Ali
Tag-teamed with Rocky
The greatest of all time
A Marqués De Riscal '49

But is he made up for the night?
I'm untouchable, I am out of sight
Cover the cuts with glitter
I am a qualified pro good time transmitter

In principle, I'm alright
In principle, I'm invincible

International warrior
Takes the world by storm
Takes the world by storm

I'm ten bears, I'm ten feet tall
Set the pins up I am the bowling ball
Only time will tell

And he's rattling the shutters of
His private hell

Wake me up, when you're done
Please keep soldiering on
'Cause without you where would I be?
Lost for words
Lost at sea

In principle, I'm alright
Out of principle, I'm invincible

International warrior
Takes the world by storm
Takes the world by storm

Prepare the dissonance each night
As the ghosts of doubt
Flicker in and flicker out
Of the candle light

Smoke and mirrors mirror us
Your brain is full
Banks are over-flowing
And there is no sign of slowing down

International worrier
Without you where would I be?
Lost for words
Lost at sea

International warrior
Without you where would I be?
Lost for words
Lost at sea
