ALEXANDER
Author(s): Jeremy, Zechariah Waxman
Songbook: Songs of Love Songbook
KeyWords: Family Characters,

Alexander thought his hands
Were holding all the world
But he died a broken man
Who thought he reached his goal.

Chorus:
He wanted it all for himself
And he didn't wanna share it
With anyone else, he wanted it all
So he lost everything in the end
Ooooo.

Napoleon Bonaparte's kingdom fell apart
When he thought he had it made
Uncle Sam too met his Waterloo
When he came to Watergate

Chorus:
They wanted it all for themselves
And they didn't wanna share it
With anyone else, they wanted it all
So they lost everything in the end, end
Oooo.

Bridge:
So don't worry if you're nothing,
When you're thinkin' you're somethin'
That's when you're not
If you're thinkin ' you're somethin'
You're gonna lose everything that you
Think you've got.

As history shows us
And Toynbee told us
From history we never learn
Of all the great men who came to their end
Because to God they wouldn't turn.

[Repeat Second Chorus]

[Repeat Bridge]
