"Alexander In Charge" lyrics

There was an average Monday
There was a movie star
There was a man with a gun
There was a getaway car
There was a moment's confusion
Then all hell broke loose
There was immediate action
There was nothing left to do

This wasn't up to me but the damage is already done
Let me introduce myself
You're in the presence of your brand new number one
Responsibility, you know the boots I fill are large
One thing I'm sure of here is that Alexander is in charge

There were a million questions
There was a helping hand
Opportunity
And a chain of command
And now the chain has been broken
By the chosen few
And when you're all in line
I did what I had to do

This wasn't up to me but the damage is already done
Let me introduce myself
You're in the presence of your brand new number one
Responsibility, you know the boots I fill are large
One thing I'm sure of here is that Alexander is in charge

I'm fifth in line
I'm only three away from right
And I think I've proven myself
'Cause this is war
Someone must win the fight
So quick to judge on a minor oversight

Fate has a funny way of knowing what you bring
One shot, one chance is yours for changing everything
It all seems so perfect now, it all seems like you're impressed
And given half the chance, you know it works out for the best

This wasn't up to me but the damage is already done
Let me introduce myself
You're in the presence of your brand new number one
Responsibility, you know the boots I fill are large
One thing I'm sure of here is that Alexander is in charge
