[00:14.170]I used to rule the world
[00:17.850]Seas would rise when I gave the word
[00:20.570]Now in the morning I sleep alone
[00:24.740]Sweep the streets I used to own
[00:41.830]I used to roll the dice
[00:45.580]Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
[00:49.400]Listened as the crowd would sing:
[00:53.070]"Now the old king is dead!
[00:54.810]Long live the king!
[00:56.010]One minute I held the key
[00:59.910]Next the walls were closed on me
[01:02.630]And I discovered that my castles stand
[01:06.820]Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand
[01:10.820]I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
[01:14.720]Roman cavalry choirs are singing
[01:18.110]Be my mirror my sword and shield
[01:21.570]Missionaries in a foreign field
[01:25.040]For some reason I can't explain
[01:29.180]Once you'd gone there was never,
[01:31.810]never an honest word
[01:36.010]That was when I ruled the world
[01:52.500]It was the wicked and wild wind
[01:56.720]Blew down the doors to let me in
[01:59.620]Shattered windows and the sound of drums
[02:03.950]People couldn't believe what I'd become
[02:07.610]Revolutionaries wait
[02:11.360]For my head on a silver plate
[02:14.060]Just a puppet on a lonely string
[02:18.400]Oh who would ever wanna be king?
[02:22.150]I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
[02:25.750]Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[02:29.230]Be my mirror my sword and shield
[02:32.570]Missionaries in a foreign field
[02:36.140]For some reason I can't explain
[02:39.510]I know Saint Peter won't call my name
[02:43.120]Never an honest word
[02:46.400]But that was when I ruled the world
[03:03.090](Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)
[03:19.570]Hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
[03:22.910]Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[03:26.450]Be my mirror my sword and shield
[03:29.800]My missionaries in a foreign field
[03:33.240]For some reason I can't explain
[03:36.680]I know Saint Peter won't call my name
[03:39.920]Never an honest word
[03:43.220]But that was when I ruled the world
