Packed a suitcase tight For an early flight Kissed the kids goodbye Couldn't sleep last night Feel i'm running blind Too much on my mind Right now It's a brand new place With a month to go Babe i'm missing you And i know you know Got your cheeky text Put the smile back on my face Passing neon signs See our name in lights People on thier way To our show tonight Stepping on the stage Hear the crowd erupt Then the lights come on Then we fire it up Pop machine Ridin' in the pop machine Haven't you heard We're rulin' the world Livin' the dream Pop machine Ridin' in the pop machine Haven't you heard We're rulin' the world Livin' the dream Another tv show Someone we don't know In the makeup room We're on J Leno The producer says Hurry up it's time to wait Pose for photographs Do the backstage greets Sign the autographs Try to make em laugh Ate some Macky D's Choked on agents fees Oh these long world tours Man they're killing me Pop machine Ridin' in the pop machine Haven't you heard We're rulin' the world Livin' the dream Sing it Woh oh oh oh Woh oh oh oh Woh oh oh oh Woh oh Haven't you heard We're rulin' the world Livin' the dream In the first class lounge Still can hear the sound Of the encore screams From the crazy crowd Guess we lived the dream Of this pop machine Now the private jet Yeah we're homeward bound Pop machine Ridin' in the pop machine Haven't you heard We're rulin' the world Livin' the dream Pop machine Ridin' in the pop machine Haven't you heard We're rulin' the world Livin' the dream Sing it Woh oh oh oh Woh oh oh oh Woh oh oh oh Woh oh Haven't you heard We're rulin the world Livin' the dream Pop machine Ridin' in the pop machine Haven't you heard We're rulin' the world We're livin' the dream
