Ellsworth Toohey explains to Peter Keating his diabolical plan to psychologically and spiritually control the world.

Lyrics

“Enjoyment is not my destiny. 
I shall find such satisfaction as my capacity permits. 
I shall rule."

It’s only a matter of discovering the lever. 
If you learn how to rule one single man’s soul, 
you can get the rest of mankind. 
It’s the soul, Peter, the soul.
The soul is that which can’t be ruled. 
It must be broken

Once his soul gives up its self respect. 
You’ve got him. 
He’ll obey. 
He’ll be glad to obey – 
because he can’t trust himself,
Nature allows no vacuum. 
Empty man’s soul – 
and the space is yours to fill.

Don't let anything remain sacred 
in a man’s soul – 
and his soul won’t be sacred to him. ill reverence and you’ve killed 
the hero in man.
Great men can’t be ruled. 
We don’t want any great men

Kill man’s sense of values. 
Kill his capacity to recognize greatness
Kill his aspiration and his integrity.
through internal corruption. 
Direct it towards a goal destructive of all integrity. 
Preach selflessness and self-sacrifice

It stands to reason 
that where there’s sacrifice, 
someone’s collecting sacrificial offerings. 
Where there’s service, 
there’s someone being served.

The man who speaks to you of sacrifice, 
speaks of slaves and masters. 
And intends to be the master.


Don't let anything remain sacred 
in a man’s soul – 
and his soul won’t be sacred to him. 
Kill values and you’ve killed 
the hero in man.
The man of Integrity can’t be ruled. 
We don’t want any men of integrity


you might have noticed something. 
I said, ’It stands to reason.’ Do you see? 
Men have a weapon against you. 
Reason. 
So you must be very sure 
to take it away from them. 
Cut the props from under it

Don’t say reason is evil 
Just say that reason is limited.
That there’s something above it. 
Call it ’Instinct’—or ’Feeling’ or Revelation
Suspend reason and you play it deuces wild. 
Anything goes in any manner you wish 


Don't let anything remain sacred 
in a man’s soul – 
and his soul won’t be sacred to him. 
Kill Reason and you’ve killed 
the hero in man.
Can you rule a thinking man ? 
We don’t want any thinking men.

This is the world I want 
A world of obedience and of unity. 
No individuality can be permitted
To act together. To think--together. To feel--together. 
To obey. To serve. To sacrifice. 
We’ve taught men to unite. 
This makes one neck ready for one leash.


Give up your soul to a council—
or give it up to a leader. 
But give it up, give it up, give it up.
Kill the individual
and you’ve killed the hero in man.
Kill man’s soul. 
The rest will follow automatically 


Don't let anything remain sacred 
in a man’s soul – 
and his soul won’t be sacred to him. 
Kill the individual And you’ve killed 
the hero in man
Kill man’s soul. 
The rest will follow automatically.

{spoken]
I want power. 
I want my world of the future. 
Let all live for all. 
Let all sacrifice and none profit. 
All subjugated to the will of all. 
Universal slavery and a total equality. 
The world of the future. 
The world I want.

Fronted by singer Don Dokken and pyrotechnic guitarist George Lynch, Dokken came to define the hugely popular (if often unfairly maligned) genre known as “hair metal” with their exuberant hooks, dazzling musicianship, and flashily explosive live shows.

Initially known as The Boyz, the band came together in 1978 and quickly earned a reputation on the fiercely competitive Los Angeles club circuit. Renaming themselves Dokken, they released their 1982 debut album, Breaking The Chains, first in Europe and then in the U.S. via Elektra.

Driven by non-stop MTV and rock radio airplay, the album’s title track proved a hard rock smash, catapulting Dokken to the forefront of heavy metal. From there, the band ruled the 1980s, racking up hit after worldwide hit, including “Into The Fire,” “Alone Again,” “Burning Like A Flame,” and “Dream Warrior,” as well as three consecutive RIAA platinum-certified albums.

Citing creative differences, Dokken split in 1988, with Don Dokken going on to pursue a solo career and George Lynch further developing his lightening-fast style with his own Lynch Mob. The band’s lasting mark is best summed up by their moniker’s entry into the American vernacular as a slang term for undeniable awesomeness: “Rockin’ like Dokken!”
