Great Expectations — текст песни (styx)

Written by dennis deyoung

Lead vocals by dennis deyoung



Everybody will be watching

Just to see what can you do

Theyll be waiting, anticipating

For the genius to come through

So raise the bar up

A little higher

They expect so much of you

Feel the madness accelerating

Cause you feel the same way too



Great, great, great expectations



Everybodys masturbating

Wondering what youre gonna do

And all the doctors are contemplating

Can the smart ass still pull through

Mister big shot



With all the answers

One more time through the hoop for you

Light a fire

To the whole thing

Feel the flame as you go through



Great, great, great expectations



Did you think that your ambition

Would ever end up in remission

Did ya

Now did ya

Did you think your sacrifices

Would turn your dreams into your vices

Now did ya

How could ya



All the cynics & the ciphers

Make you question what you do

So turn your amp up a little louder

To drown out that void in you

While the mantra keeps repeating

There are dreams you must pursue

If you just try a little harder

There aint nothing you cant do



Great, great, great expectations
