[00:00.000]
[00:15.090]I used to rule the world
[00:19.410]Seas would rise when I gave the word
[00:22.220]Now in the morning I sleep alone
[00:27.000]Sweep the streets I used to own
[00:31.140]
[00:46.710]I used to roll the dice
[00:50.960]Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
[00:54.320]Listen as the crowd would sing
[00:58.650]"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
[01:01.850]One minute I held the key
[01:06.210]Next the walls were closed on me
[01:09.090]And I discovered that my castles stand
[01:13.770]Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
[01:16.590]
[01:18.200]I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
[01:22.020]Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[01:25.730]Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[01:29.220]My missionaries in a foreign field
[01:32.690]
[01:33.690]For some reason I can't explain
[01:37.370]Once you're gone there was never
[01:40.620]Never an honest word
[01:44.940]But that was when I ruled the world
[01:47.250]
[02:03.810]It was the wicked and wild wind
[02:08.250]Blew down the doors to let me in
[02:11.310]Shattered windows and the sound of drums
[02:16.000]People couldn't believe what I'd become
[02:19.250]Revolutionaries wait
[02:23.620]For my head on a silver plate
[02:26.870]Just a puppet on a lonely string
[02:31.430]Oh who would ever want to be king?
[02:34.060]
[02:36.120]I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
[02:39.810]Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[02:43.560]Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[02:47.370]My missionaries in a foreign field
[02:51.350]For some reason I can't explain
[02:55.000]I know Saint Peter won't call my name
[02:58.750]Never an honest word
[03:02.750]But that was when I ruled the world
[03:12.900]
[03:21.870]Woahahahah oh, woahahah oh
[03:54.490]I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
[03:57.990]Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[04:01.870]Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[04:05.620]My missionaries in a foreign field
[04:08.860]
[04:09.400]For some reason I can't explain
[04:13.150]I know Saint Peter won't call my name
[04:17.330]Never an honest word
[04:20.830]But that was when I ruled the world
[04:23.330]
