Arnold Schwarzenegger (How times have changed)
By Farkas Pungur - Brisbane AU
(Verse 1)
He came from far, with a dream in his eyes,
Built like a mountain, reaching for the skies.
A champion carved from sweat and pain.
With pumping iron he built his name,
On the silver screen, he played the part,
A strong hero with a lion heart.
From silver screens to the governor’s chair,
A legend, a hero you can’t compare.
He took the seat and lead the state,
Made the calls, jobs he would create.
They all listened, they all praised,
As long as the voters be amazed.
But time moves fast, the winds will change,
Fame and power never stay the same.
Once he ruled, once he shined,
Now he's just a face in my mind.
(Chorus)
He was the champion, the people’s man,
Held the world in his mighty hand.
But when the fame and power gone,
They betrayed the man on the throne?
When the spotlight fades and the curtains close,
Where are all the spineless snakes goes?
They loved his strength, they loved his gold,
Now to a new fame they are selling their soul.
(verse 2)
Fame’s a river that flows away,
No one stays and shines all day.
But in his heart, he still believes,
He was more than the roles on the screens.
The world forgets, the years go fast,
Legends like him are only last.
But in the dark, he’ll always be,
The man of his dream he wanted to be.
Now the spotlight fades, the echoes die,
Only the best of friends swinging by.
Once a king, now just a man,
They only love you when they can.
Once out of power and no more use
The liars following a new golden goose
Like his fame all the promises are gone
New king born with the early dawn.
(Chorus)
He was the champion, the people’s man,
Held the world in his mighty hand.
But when the fame and power gone,
They betrayed the man on the throne?
When the spotlight fades and the curtains close,
Where are all the spineless snakes goes?
They loved his strength, they loved his gold,
Now to a new fame they are selling their soul.
(Outro)
When the lights fade, when the crowd's gone,
Will they still sing your song?
When the power slips, when the cheers die,
Will they shake your hand or just pass you by?
