| [00:05.57] |
I used to rule the world |
| [00:09.46] |
Seas would rise when I gave the word |
| [00:12.44] |
Now in the morning I sleep alone |
| [00:17.04] |
Sweep the streets I used to own |
| [00:32.07] |
I used to roll the dice |
| [00:32.35] |
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes |
| [00:35.59] |
Listen as the crowd would sing |
| [00:40.29] |
"Now the old king is dead, long live the king" |
| [00:43.43] |
One minute I held the key |
| [00:47.52] |
Next the walls were closed on me |
| [00:50.78] |
And I discovered that my castles stand |
| [00:55.39] |
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand |
| [01:07.31] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing |
| [01:10.68] |
Roman Catholic choirs are singing |
| [01:14.74] |
Be my mirror, my sword and shield |
| [01:18.41] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [01:22.31] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [01:26.10] |
Once you go, there was never |
| [01:31.38] |
Never an honest word |
| [01:33.73] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [01:44.47] |
It was the wicked and wild wind |
| [01:48.61] |
Blew down the doors to let me in |
| [01:51.34] |
Shattered windows and the sound of drums |
| [01:56.22] |
People couldn't believe what I'd become |
| [01:59.69] |
Revolutionaries wait |
| [02:03.67] |
For my head on a silver plate |
| [02:06.86] |
Just a puppet on a lonely string |
| [02:11.34] |
Oh who would ever want to be king? |
| [02:15.67] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing |
| [02:19.41] |
Roman Catholic choirs are singing |
| [02:23.15] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [02:26.93] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [02:30.86] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [02:34.71] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [02:39.69] |
Never an honest word |
| [02:41.17] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [03:02.56] |
(Ohh, ohh, ohh) |
| [03:31.89] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing |
| [03:34.33] |
Roman Catholic choirs are singing |
| [03:39.33] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [03:43.27] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [03:46.89] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [03:50.56] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [03:54.47] |
Never an honest word |
| [03:57.87] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [04:33.19] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing |
| [04:33.19] |
Roman Catholic choirs are singing |
| [04:33.19] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [04:33.19] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [04:33.19] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [04:33.19] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [04:33.19] |
Never an honest word |
| [04:33.19] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
