[length: 04:05]
[00:14.03]I used to rule the world
[00:17.26]Seas would rise when I gave the word
[00:19.90]Now in the morning I sleep alone
[00:23.27]Sweep the streets I used to own
[00:41.78]I used to roll the dice
[00:44.71]Feel the fear in my enemy’s eyes
[00:48.57]Listen as the crowd would sing
[00:51.80]”Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!”
[00:55.25]One minute I held the key
[00:58.64]Next the walls were closed on me
[01:01.55]And I discovered that my castles stand
[01:06.07]Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
[01:09.17]I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
[01:13.04]Roman Calvary choirs are singing
[01:16.98]Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[01:20.57]My missionaries in a foreign field
[01:24.08]For some reason I can’t explain
[01:27.33]Once you go there was never
[01:30.33]Never an honest word
[01:33.78]And that was when I ruled the world
[01:50.96]It was the wicked and wild wind
[01:54.52]Blew down the doors to let me in
[01:57.17]Shattered windows and the sound of drums
[02:00.82]People couldn’t believe what I’d become
[02:04.76]Revolutionaries wait
[02:08.30]For my head on a silver plate
[02:11.67]Just a puppet on a lonely string
[02:15.33]Oh who would ever want to be king?
[02:19.16]I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
[02:23.06]Roman Calvary choirs are singing
[02:26.41]Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[02:29.79]My missionaries in a foreign field
[02:33.33]For some reason I can’t explain
[02:36.73]I know Saint Peter won’t call my name
[02:40.17]Never an honest word
[02:43.22]But that was when I ruled the world
[03:16.03]I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
[03:18.64]Roman Calvary choirs are singing
[03:22.13]Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[03:25.49]My missionaries in a foreign field
[03:28.79]For some reason I can’t explain
[03:32.29]I know Saint Peter won’t call my name
[03:35.66]Never an honest word
[03:38.66]But that was when I ruled the world
