[00:10.53]	I hear Jerusalem’s bells are ringing
[00:14.71]	Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[00:18.93]	Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[00:22.97]	My missionaries in a foreign field
[00:31.24]
[00:42.88]	I used to rule the world
[00:47.38]	Seas would rise when I gave the word
[00:50.63]	Now in the morning I sleep alone
[00:55.68]	Sweep the streets I used to own
[00:59.29]	I used to roll the dice
[01:04.25]	Feel the fear in my enemy’s eyes
[01:07.40]	Listen as the crowd would sing:
[01:12.36]	“Now the old king is dead!
[01:14.42]	Long live the king!”
[01:15.97]	One minute I held the key
[01:20.58]	Next the walls were closed on me
[01:24.07]	And I discovered that my castles stand
[01:29.03]	Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand
[01:33.74]	I hear Jerusalem’s bells are ringing
[01:37.85]	Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[01:42.06]	Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[01:46.07]	My missionaries in a foreign field
[01:50.22]	For some reason I cannot explain
[01:54.67]	Once you go there was never
[01:57.83]	Never an honest word
[02:02.49]	That was when I ruled the world
[02:13.25]
[02:22.44]	It was the wicked and wild wind
[02:27.68]	Blew down the doors to let me in
[02:30.94]	Shattered windows and the sound of drums
[02:35.84]	People could not believe what I’d become
[02:39.70]	Revolutionaries wait
[02:44.20]	For my head on a silver plate
[02:47.61]	Just a puppet on a lonely string
[02:52.59]	Oh who would ever want to be king?
[02:56.95]	I hear Jerusalem’s bells are ringing
[03:01.46]	Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[03:05.66]	Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[03:09.67]	My missionaries in a foreign field
[03:13.87]	For some reason I cannot explain
[03:17.98]	I know Saint Peter won’t call my name
[03:21.54]	Never an honest word
[03:25.83]	But that was when I ruled the world
[03:30.75]
[03:47.45]	Hear Jerusalem’s bells are ringing
[03:51.62]	Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[03:56.23]	Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[04:00.08]	My missionaries in a foreign field

[00:10.53]	I hear Jerusalem' s bells are ringing
[00:14.71]	Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[00:18.93]	Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[00:22.97]	My missionaries in a foreign field
[00:31.24]
[00:42.88]	I used to rule the world
[00:47.38]	Seas would rise when I gave the word
[00:50.63]	Now in the morning I sleep alone
