Cars in the night, cut through the mist
Baby suns for eyes, diamonds on your wrist
Twist in the scheme, a permeating theme
A violin crescendo
Dark violet skies over seas of lead
Hard violent fights, red sun will set
Like a rivulet, like a tear beget
A clear innuendo
Silence of the mind ever deafening
Rain on the roof ever prattling
Straddling truth for the pain you gain for pain
Some bill of rights
Daring getaways, steamy masquerades
Famine of all wars, whores and escapades
Jack of Spades in silk brocades
Velvet nights in city lights

It's a wide wide world out there
And life can be a love affair
Or a cage of sheer despair
You’re a choice millionaire
It's a wide wide world out there
You can travel in your easy chair
So build your castles in the air
You’re a choice millionaire
Because no one needs any more confessions
Shadows cast without a streak of fear
Moments past, held so dear
A lock of hair, a touch of lip
A lashing whip
Subliminal love for the ones you hate
LOL as I abbreviate
Alleviate if you can relate to the pink slip
Of love unzipped
Minutes burning till seconds pop
Silhouettes dancing till the curtains drop
Stop before you lose your mojo
Your fear of heights
Hot passion flares every pipe dream
Concussion, blindness of a regime
A scream incites, the air ignites
The city lights

It's a wide wide world out there
And life can be a love affair
Or a cage of sheer despair
You’re a choice millionaire
It's a wide wide world out there
You can travel in your easy chair
So build your castles in the air
You’re a choice millionaire

So put a lacquer on your hunger
Parade the sky that you're under
Without heedless impressions
No one needs more confessions
So put a lacquer on your hunger
Parade the sky that you're under
Without heedless impressions
No one needs more confessions

It's a wide wide world out there
And life can be a love affair
Or a cage of sheer despair
You’re a choice millionaire
It's a wide wide world out there
You can travel in your easy chair
So build your castles in the air
You’re a choice millionaire (choice millionaire ×2)

Tell me this, would you miss it,
Trying on another face again to see if it's you
N' wondering where you've been
And where you're gonna find yourself before the night is through
Tell me this,
Is it lonely in the shadow of a masquerade for life you hide behind
N' what's the deal with your reasons to run away
And leave your feelings in the city lights
