I used to rule the world[00:00:13]
Seas would rise when I gave the word[00:00:17]
Now in the morning I sleep alone[00:00:20]
Sweep the streets I used to own[00:00:24]
I used to roll the dice[00:00:41]
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes[00:00:45]
Listen as the crowd would sing[00:00:48]
Now the old king is dead[00:00:52]
Long live the king[00:00:54]
One minute I held the key[00:00:55]
Next the walls were closed on me[00:00:59]
And I discovered that my castles stand[00:01:02]
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand[00:01:06]
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing[00:01:09]
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing[00:01:13]
Be my mirror my sword and shield[00:01:17]
My missionaries in a foreign field[00:01:20]
For some reason I can't explain[00:01:24]
Once you go there was never[00:01:27]
Never an honest word[00:01:30]
But that was when I ruled the world[00:01:34]
It was the wicked and wild wind[00:01:50]
Blew down the doors to let me in[00:01:54]
Shattered windows and the sound of drums[00:01:57]
People couldn't believe what I'd become[00:02:01]
Revolutionaries wait[00:02:05]
For my head on a silver plate[00:02:08]
Just a puppet on a lonely string[00:02:11]
Oh who would ever want to be king[00:02:15]
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing[00:02:19]
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing[00:02:23]
Be my mirror my sword and shield[00:02:26]
My missionaries in a foreign field[00:02:30]
For some reason I can't explain[00:02:33]
I know Saint Peter won't call my name[00:02:36]
Never an honest word[00:02:40]
But that was when I ruled the world[00:02:43]
Oh oh oh oh oh oh[00:03:00]
Oh oh oh oh oh oh[00:03:03]
Oh oh oh oh oh oh[00:03:07]
Oh oh oh oh oh oh[00:03:10]
Oh oh oh oh oh[00:03:14]
Hear Jerusalem bells are ringing[00:03:15]
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing[00:03:18]
Be my mirror my sword and shield[00:03:22]
My missionaries in a foreign field[00:03:25]
For some reason I can't explain[00:03:29]
I know Saint Peter won't call my name[00:03:32]
Never an honest word[00:03:35]
But that was when I ruled the world[00:03:39]
