Higher Than Ever Lyrics — The Queen of Versailles

Higher Than Ever

JACKIE: (spoken)
A Queen of Versailles necklace?
In diamonds?

DAVID: (spoken)
Because Versailles is no longer for sale
(sung)
American royalty
That's who you're meant to be

JACKIE:
You got back Versailles?

DAVID:
I said, didn't I?
I'd get it back if I could
I always knew you would

GARY:
A little cagey, a little clever
Look where we end up —
Higher than ever
Back in business, and my oh my
Higher than ever, we're gonna fly

We'll be higher than ever

DAVID:
Every safeguard and system

GARY:
Higher than ever

DAVID:
And the way you can twist 'em

GARY:
Rules for common folk don't apply

GARY & DAVID:
Higher than ever, we're gonna fly

DAVID: (spoken)
Bonuses for everyone!

GARY & DAVID:
Higher than ever

JACKIE & JONQUIL:
If you had the chance to choose

GARY & DAVID:
Higher than ever

JACKIE & JONQUIL:
? will you choose

ALL:
With the best life that you can buy

GARY:
Who says you can't own the sky?

ALL:
Higher than ever
We're gonna fly!

ENSEMBLE:
And the Kingdom goes on forever
And the Kingdom goes on forever

GARY:
We bought back Westgate Vegas,
You'll be dazzled when you enter

ENSEMBLE:
The rows of gleaming slot machines,
The Westgate flag unfurled

FEMALE ENSEMBLE:
The King performed here!

ELVIS PRESLEY:
Elvis

GARY:
It's got a sports bet center

DAVID: (spoken)
And the biggest Benihana
In the whole damn world

ENSEMBLE:
The biggest Benihana in the world!
Blazing like rockets,
Soaring like eagles
Right back on top now,
Here come the Siegels
Here's the proof,
Thirty stories high
Who says you can't own the sky?
Higher than
Higher than, higher than, higher than ever...
We're gonna fly!
Who says you can't own the sky?
We're gonna fly!
Who says you can't own the sky?
We're gonna fly!
Who says you can't own the sky?
We're gonna fly!
Who says you can't own the sky?

WESTGATE STAFF: (overlapping)
You deserve more!
You deserve more!
You deserve more!
You deserve more!

(repeat 'til fade)
