Napoleon Lyrics - Dilate - Ani Difranco

They told you your music could reach millions 

The choice was up to you 

You told me they always pay for lunch 

And they believe in what I do 

And I wonder if you'll miss your old friends 

Once you've proven what you're worth 

And I wonder when you're a big star 

Will you miss the earth 

And I know you always, always want more 

I know you, you'll never be done 

Because everyone is a fucking napoleon 

Everyone is a fucking napoleon 

And the next time that I saw you 

You were larger than life 

Yeah you came and you conquered 

You were doing all right 

You had an army of suits behind you 

And all you had to be was willing 

And I said I still make a pretty good living 

You must make a killing, a killing 

And I hope that, that you are happy 

I hope that at least you are having fun 

Oh but everyone is a fucking napoleon 

Well everyone is a fucking napoleon 

You say that, so that's the way it's gonna be 

So that's what this is all about 

I think that that's the way it always was 

You chose not to notice until now 

Oh now that, now that there's a problem 

You call me up to confide 

And you go on for over an hour 

About each one that took you for a ride 

And I guess that you dialed my number 

Because you thought for sure that I'd agree 

I said baby, you know I still love you 

But how dare you complain to me 

Oh but everyone is a fucking napoleon 

Everyone is a fucking napoleon 

Everyone is a fucking napoleon
