| [00:02.40] |
I used to rule the world |
| [00:04.12] |
Seas would rise when I gave the word |
| [00:06.71] |
Now in the morning I sleep alone |
| [00:10.75] |
Sweep the streets I used to own |
| [00:27.73] |
I used to roll the dice |
| [00:31.38] |
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes |
| [00:34.41] |
Listen as the crowd would sing: |
| [00:38.36] |
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!" |
| [00:41.08] |
One minute I held the key |
| [00:44.93] |
Next the walls were closed on me |
| [00:47.72] |
And I discovered that my castles stand |
| [00:51.87] |
Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand |
| [00:55.56] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing |
| [00:59.25] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [01:02.64] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [01:05.98] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [01:09.37] |
For some reason I can not explain |
| [01:12.81] |
Once you go there was never |
| [01:15.49] |
Never an honest word |
| [01:19.29] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [01:35.77] |
It was the wicked and wild wind |
| [01:39.57] |
Blew down the doors to let me in |
| [01:42.19] |
Shattered windows and the sound of drums |
| [01:46.39] |
People could not believe what I'd become |
| [01:49.48] |
Revolutionaries Wait |
| [01:53.24] |
For my head on a silver plate |
| [01:55.92] |
Just a puppet on a lonely string |
| [02:00.11] |
Oh who would ever want to be king? |
| [02:03.92] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing |
| [02:07.40] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [02:10.85] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [02:14.23] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [02:17.68] |
For some reason I can not explain |
| [02:21.01] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [02:24.09] |
Never an honest word |
| [02:27.29] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [02:43.78] |
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh) |
| [02:59.30] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing |
| [03:02.89] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [03:06.29] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [03:09.48] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [03:13.11] |
For some reason I can not explain |
| [03:16.26] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [03:19.50] |
Never an honest word |
| [03:22.73] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
