| [00:11.470] |
I used to rule the world |
| [00:15.150] |
Seas would rise when I gave the word |
| [00:17.870] |
Now in the morning I sleep alone |
| [00:22.040] |
Sweep the streets I used to own |
| [00:39.130] |
I used to roll the dice |
| [00:41.080] |
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes |
| [00:44.000] |
Listened as the crowd would sing: |
| [00:47.070] |
"Now the old king is dead! |
| [00:48.810] |
Long live the king!" |
| [00:50.010] |
One minute I held the key |
| [00:53.310] |
Next the walls were closed on me |
| [00:56.030] |
And I discovered that my castles stand |
| [00:59.920] |
Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand |
| [01:03.340] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing |
| [01:06.620] |
Roman cavalry choirs are singing |
| [01:09.410] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [01:12.270] |
Missionaries in a foreign field |
| [01:16.040] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [01:19.580] |
Once you'd gone there was never, |
| [01:22.210] |
never an honest word |
| [01:25.510] |
That was when I ruled the world |
| [01:42.000] |
It was the wicked and wild wind |
| [01:45.020] |
Blew down the doors to let me in |
| [01:46.120] |
Shattered windows and the sound of drums |
| [01:50.450] |
People couldn't believe what I'd become |
| [01:53.810] |
Revolutionaries wait |
| [01:57.560] |
For my head on a silver plate |
| [02:00.260] |
Just a puppet on a lonely string |
| [02:04.000] |
Oh who would ever wanna be king? |
| [02:07.450] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing |
| [02:10.750] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [02:13.330] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [02:16.670] |
Missionaries in a foreign field |
| [02:20.240] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [02:23.310] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [02:26.020] |
Never an honest word |
| [02:28.700] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [02:44.490] |
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh) |
| [02:57.970] |
Hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing |
| [03:01.910] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [03:03.950] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [03:07.300] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [03:11.040] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [03:14.480] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [03:17.120] |
Never an honest word |
| [03:20.420] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [03:23.420] |
Never an honest word |
| [03:26.420] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
