| Artist: Company B Song: Power JOHN HOWARD: I was an angel in the beginning I thought of playing but not of winning So frail and weak, so meek and mild, I was the world's most agreeable child I had my share of schoolyard beatings I made my fair and frightened bleatings But I began to understand What they held in their bullying hands... I want power! I want power! I want to smell my own ambition in flower! I want a sense of domination and control! I want to bat! I want to bowl! I want power! I want power! The kind where servant girls bring tributes by the hour! And I won't rest until I rule the school! Then I'll be hip, then I'll be cool. BAND: You'll be empowered, John Winston Howard HOWARD: Not a single soul alive to call me coward! BAND: You'll be the big, big cheese HOWARD: I won't say sorry! I won't say please! BAND: You'll be empowered, John Winston Howard HOWARD: They'll pay for every time I scraped and bowed and cowered I'll do what must be done To make John Howard number one! BAND: Number one! HOWARD: At university, I took my hisses My slings and brickbats, my hits and misses But ev'ry moment mocked and cursed Increased my hunger, increased my thirst And so the party fed my ambition They let me lead the Opposition They let me lead then tore me down But that won't happen this time around... I want power! I want power! Not just to sit in Opposition and glower! I want to turn this mother loose! Show me the money! Give me the juice! I want power! I want power! I'll give Australia a gorgeous golden show! And I won't rest until I rule! Then I'll be cruel, then I'll be cool. BAND: You'll be empowered, John Winston Howard HOWARD: I'll show that Keating joker how his grapes have soured! BAND: You'll be the man in charge HOWARD: I'll go ballistic! I'm livin' large! BAND: You'll be empowered, John Winston Howard HOWARD: With a biography by Pru and David Goward And when it comes to be, I'll make the bastards bow to me! And when it comes to be... BOW TO ME. [Thanks to Jess for lyrics] Back to Keating! soundtrack |
