  • Ya know it's your boy I-Y-A-Z and big time rush! (woo! woo!)

    If I ruled the world, I'd throw all the money
    In the air like confetti
    If I ruled the world, every house got a DJ and a backyard party.
    And I'd break all the borders down, when I shake the ground

    If I ruled the world
    I'd dream out loud

    So everybody get up, up
    Out of your seats
    Kick off your shoes, like you're down at the beach
    Jump up, up, up
    On the beat singing "Aye oh!", "Aye oh!", "Aye oh!"
    Up, up, out of your seats
    Be who you are love is all you need
    All of us geeks, freaks and wannabes singing "Aye oh!"

    If I ruled the world, I would give it, give it all to you, give it, give it all to you
    If I ruled the world, I would give it, give it all to you, give it, give it all to you

    If you were my girl
    You'd never have to worry about another thing, no
    'Cause I'd rule the world, and you'd be right next to me
    Running the show
    We'd throw every rule in the book down and
    Bring down the house
    If you were my girl
    We'd dream out loud

    So everybody get up, up
    Out of your seats
    Kick off your shoes, like you're down at the beach
    Jump up, up, up
    On the beat singing "Aye oh!", "Aye oh!", "Aye oh!"
    Up, up, out of your seats
    Be who you are love is all you need
    All of us geeks, freaks and wannabes singing "Aye oh!"

    If I ruled the world, I would give it, give it all to you, give it, give it all to you
    If I ruled the world, I would give it, give it all to you, give it, give it all to you

    I'd be beatin' on my chest; I'm the king of the hill.
    Iyaz and big time rush keepin' it real.
    Magic carpets girl, we go wherever,
    I ain't tryin' a run game, I ain't tryin' to be clever.
    Girl, I'm'ma be the king, and you will be the queen.
    Goin' a hundred miles an hour,
    Girl, we runnin' the streets.
    And if the cops ever try and pull us over,
    Tell 'em "Hey, Mister Officer, we own ya!"

    So everybody get up, up
    Out of your seats
    Kick off your shoes, like you're down at the beach
    Jump up, up, up
    On the beat singing "Aye oh!", "Aye oh!", "Aye oh!"
    Up, up, out of your seats
    Be who you are love is all you need
    All of us geeks, freaks and wannabes singing "Aye oh!"

    If I ruled the world, I would give it, give it all to you, give it, give it all to you
    If I ruled the world, I would give it, give it all to you, give it, give it all to you
    If I ruled the world, I would give it, give it all to you, give it, give it all to you
    If I ruled the world, I would give it, give it all to you, give it, give it all to you
    If I ruled the world, I would give it, give it all to you, give it, give it all to you

    I would give it, give it all to you, give it, give it all to you, if I ruled the world. Writer/s: EMANUEL KIRIAKOU, EVAN BOGART, LINDY ROBBINS
