| [00:18.720] |
I used to rule the world |
| [00:22.270] |
Seas would rise when I gave the word |
| [00:24.850] |
Now in the morning I sleep alone |
| [00:29.300] |
Sweep the streets I used to own |
| [00:46.140] |
I used to roll the dice |
| [00:50.080] |
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes |
| [00:53.220] |
Listen as the crowd would sing |
| [00:57.070] |
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!" |
| [01:00.050] |
One minute I held the key |
| [01:03.890] |
Next the walls were closed on me |
| [01:06.680] |
And I discovered that my castles stand |
| [01:10.820] |
Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand |
| [01:14.760] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing |
| [01:18.260] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [01:21.800] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [01:25.230] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [01:28.620] |
For some reason I can not explain |
| [01:32.060] |
Once you go there was never |
| [01:34.790] |
Never an honest word |
| [01:38.530] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [01:55.370] |
It was the wicked and wild wind |
| [01:59.260] |
Blew down the doors to let me in |
| [02:02.000] |
Shattered windows and the sound of drums |
| [02:06.390] |
People could not believe what I'd become |
| [02:09.380] |
Revolutionaries Wait |
| [02:13.280] |
For my head on a silver plate |
| [02:15.910] |
Just a puppet on a lonely string |
| [02:20.160] |
Oh who would ever want to be king? |
| [02:23.940] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing |
| [02:27.590] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [02:31.030] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [02:34.410] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [02:37.950] |
For some reason I can not explain |
| [02:41.340] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [02:44.370] |
Never an honest word |
| [02:47.820] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [03:04.400] |
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh) |
| [03:19.410] |
Hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing |
| [03:23.000] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [03:26.340] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [03:29.780] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [03:33.470] |
For some reason I can not explain |
| [03:36.600] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [03:39.890] |
Never an honest word |
| [03:43.330] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
