Lyrics

Just look in my eyes
And tell me
You've got all that it takes
And much more
All you gotta do is say...

Stop telling me lies
Show me
With every move that you make
You can score...
Just tell me that you want to play.

You can feel it
But can you steal it?
'Cause boy, I've got the magic touch

Can you be the best?
With the power you possess?
Will you stand up to the fight?
Can you pass the test?
Are you frightened to confess
That you just can't get it right?
You can win or lose
But you've gotta pay your dues
Step up or step away
Do you really wanna play?

The challenge is yours
Take it
You've backed down before
Now prove to me
You control your destiny

Keep it steady
Get ready
Show me that you've got the stuff

Can you be the best?
With the power you possess?
Will you stand up to the fight?
Can you pass the test?
Are you frightened to confess
That you just can't get it right?
You can win or lose
But you've gotta pay your dues
Step up or step away...

Let yourself go
This is my show
Watch me when I play

Change your mind-set
And you'll get
Better every day...

Can you be the best?
With the power you possess?
Will you stand up to the fight?
Can you pass the test?
Are you frightened to confess
That you just can't get it right?
You can win or lose
But you've gotta pay your dues
Step up or step away

Can you be the best?
With the power you possess?
Will you stand up to the fight?
Can you pass the test?
Are you frightened to confess
That you just can't get it right?

Can you be the best?
With the power you possess?
Will you stand up to the fight?
Can you pass the test?
Are you frightened to confess
That you just can't get it right?

Can you be the best?
With the power you possess?
Will you stand up to the fight?
