| [00:10.890] |
I used to rule the world |
| [00:12.898] |
Seas would rise when I gave the word |
| [00:15.389] |
Now in the morning I sleep alone |
| [00:20.990] |
Sweep the streets I used to own |
| [00:31.227] |
I used to roll the dice |
| [00:35.378] |
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes |
| [00:39.238] |
Listen as the crowd would sing: |
| [00:43.388] |
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!" |
| [00:47.298] |
One minute I held the key |
| [00:50.498] |
Next the walls were closed on me |
| [00:53.980] |
And I discovered that my castles stand |
| [00:58.288] |
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand |
| [01:10.580] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing |
| [01:14.990] |
Roman Catholic choirs are singing |
| [01:17.838] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [01:22.900] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [01:25.489] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [01:29.680] |
Once you go there was never, never an honest word |
| [01:36.489] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [01:46.819] |
It was the wicked and wild wind |
| [01:51.489] |
Blew down the doors to let me in. |
| [01:54.418] |
Shattered windows and the sound of drums |
| [01:59.368] |
People couldn't believe what I'd become |
| [02:02.868] |
Revolutionaries wait |
| [02:06.879] |
For my head on a silver plate |
| [02:09.838] |
Just a puppet on a lonely string |
| [02:16.890] |
Oh who would ever want to be king? |
| [02:18.878] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing |
| [02:22.698] |
Roman Catholic choirs are singing |
| [02:26.468] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [02:30.889] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [02:34.289] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [02:37.748] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [02:41.889] |
Never an honest word |
| [02:45.280] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [03:03.208] |
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh) |
| [03:34.858] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing |
| [03:38.928] |
Roman Catholic choirs are singing |
| [03:42.458] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [03:46.258] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [03:50.980] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [03:53.738] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [03:57.278] |
Never an honest word |
| [04:00.898] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [04:05.448] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing |
| [04:09.789] |
Roman Catholic choirs are singing |
| [04:13.228] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [04:16.898] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [04:20.748] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [04:24.349] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [04:27.778] |
Never an honest word |
| [04:32.299] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
