Princes Of The Universe Lyrics

Here we are
Born to be kings
We're the princes of the universe
Here we belong
Fighting to survive
In a war with the darkest powers
Yeah!

And here we are
We're the princes of the universe
Here we belong
Fighting for survival
We've come to be the rulers of you all

I am immortal
I have inside me blood of kings
(Yeah! Yeah!)
I have no rival
No man can be my equal
Take me to the future of you all

Born to be kings
Princes of the universe
Fighting and free
Got your world in my hand
I'm here for your love and I'll make my stand
We were born to be princes of the universe

No man could understand
My power is in my own hands

ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
People talk about you
People say you've had your day
I'm a man that will go far
Climb the moon and reach for the stars
With my sword and head held high
Gotta pass the test, first time
I know that people talk about me
I hear it every day
But I can prove 'em wrong 'cuz I'm right first time
Yeah! yeah! alright! let's go, let's go! hah!
Yeah, watch this man fly! wooh!
Bring on the girls! c'mon c'mon come on!

Here we are (yeah here we are)
Born to be kings
We're the princes of the universe
Here we belong
Born to be kings
Princes of the universe
Fighting and free
Got your world in my hand
I'm here for your love and I'll make my stand
We were born to be princes of the universe.

Of course this songs meaning is clear in reference to highlander, but it also contains something of an ode to the power of musicians, or particularly to queen as an important influnce on the lives of those who listen to their music. read the lyrics again after this commentary, and you'll see it has more to do with a rock stars quest for dominance than goofy (though awesome) immortals.

This song is great! I listened to it before every exam at uni - and now I listen to it before job interviews - or any other time I need a confidence boost. Its all about being better than everybody else, and being a winner (so great to sing to if you need to build your confidence up).

Simply an awesome song, means pretty much what it sounds like, which unfortunately means it loses a good bit of literal meaning taken outside the context of the movie Highlander...doesn't make it any less incredible though

This is my all time favorite song by Queen. And the solo near the end and then Freddie yells "Bring on the girls." I love it.

This song sounds like proto-Blind Guardian. I can even imagine Hansi singing Freddies vocal lines seamlessy.
