lyrics
We’re reaching critical mass
Gone past
We’re through the looking glass
Too fast? Baby-
that depends who you ask
At worst
You’re gonna pinnacle first
But that’s better than best-
‘cause we can make that last
longer than your jealous affection
We’re going to play on every
fantasy
Hit you harder than your
teenage erection
We’re gonna stick you then
feed the addiction
True Ambition
‘Cause this is true ambition
This is hot blood ammunition
Come taste this True Ambition
This drug is an oddity
Never trip
Always odyssey - Yeah!
we’re the only brothers
with the show that you gotta see
Flame mail
Set sail
Follow the chem-trails
In our Rolls Royce
Thrillin' to the sound of our own voice
Battleship belly up
Just need to think it
So spread the word baby
UH! - we're gonna sink it
And we'll be swingin’ our fists
Like a second super power nation
(Boom Boom Boom Boom)
And In a Solar Eclipse
rise to our standing ovation
'cause nothing will please us
'til we're bigger than Jesus
True Ambition
‘Cause this is true ambition
This is hot blood ammunition
Come taste this True Ambition
