Rock it roll it send it down the avenue
 Went out to see the Roman Empire fall
 Uh huh? uh huh?

 Two thousand elephants in gold chain-mail
 Take it, shake it, make it what you wanna be
 Them Roman legionnaires they hit the trail
 Uh huh?

 The world is what you make it
 The world is what you make it

 When Cleopatra ruled in Egypt's land
 Jump down, turn around, look at what the monkey did
 She went to find herself a mighty man
 Uh huh? uh huh?

 In come Antonio from Italy
 Haul it, ball it, drag it up the pyramid,
 He never knew how hot a girl could be
 Uh huh?

 The world is what you make it
 The world is what you make it baby
 The world is what you make it

 Don't start to hit me with your "no can do"
 Bluesin', losin', workin' up an attitude
 Clean up them windows let the sun shine through
 Uh huh? uh huh?
 There ain't no happy time without no pain
 heartbreak, new date, move on up the alleyway
 Pick up them pieces hit the road again
 Uh huh?

 The world is what you make it
 The world is what you make it baby
 The world is what you make it
